No, and that's why it seemed strange, because that's what it looked
like
to me. I haven't changed fetchmail, but I had changed exim. Changing
back what I thought I'd done (yeah, when will I ever learn to keep
backups :-( ), successfully made things work. I'd tried out one of
the
spam filtering suggestions from last week:
and (silly me - two changes at once) my own attempt at delivering mail
to folders within a Maildir:
#localfolder:
# driver = localuser
# transport = folder_delivery
# require_files = "/home/$local_part/Maildir/${if match
{$header_subject:}{\\[(\\w+)\\]} {.$1/} {XXtest} }"
I'll track down which of those two was the problem, next (even though
the bounce business was done without really understanding if it could
work in a fetchmail situation, I'm betting it was my own code from the
second attempt, which I already knew wasn't doing what I wanted...).
