Next time, mention this to me. Talking about things someone must have
missed on a public mailing list without actually approaching them
directly can be misinterpreted, even when they are list members.

I don't think so. What you and Suresh are arguing for is for Exim to
automagically use an arbitrarily named procmail filter if it exists on
disk.

1) I don't like it when automagical things happen when an arbitrarily
named file exists.

2) This change would make the FreeBSD ports for Exim depend on procmail.
Lots of people neither want nor need procmail.

I feel very strongly about the second point; the first is just personal
preference.

Ciao,
