Hi2All,

I think that the following problem is specific to Cygwin.

I am using Exim 4.04 MTA under Cygwin. I want to change a format of all
messages passing through Exim to the format reqired by some special
application.
However I cannot make any content filter to work. Exim FAQ Q1601 describes
how to make it - set-up a filter which takes message on std input and
writes modified message to the std output. However under Cygwin it does not
work as described. Consider the simplest example:

local_delivery:
driver = appendfile
transport_filter = tee -a /usr/local/exim/spool/log/teelog.log
file = /var/mail/$local_part
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add

But instead of writing a copy of the message to the teelog.log file, this
filter makes the following error to appear in
the /usr/local/exim/spool/log/mainlog:

2002-06-02 05:56:45 GX2OYL-0001QW-00 <=
Administrator@??? U=Administrator P=local S=1065
id=20020602115644.A728@WAWMTECH10TIB
2002-06-02 05:56:57 GX2OYL-0001QW-00 ==
administrator@???
<Administrator@???> R=localuser T=local_delivery defer
(32): Broken pipe: error while writing to /var/mail/administrator

How to make any filter to work under Cygwin?

Or maybe there is another way to transform message format?
