I recently started testing out maildrop as a delivery agent. I didn't
want to lose anything (mail or functionality) so I wanted to keep my
existing exim filter for deliveries, but create a duplicate of every
message to feed to maildrop. First I tried an "unseen pipe" in the
system filter. If maildrop exited with an error status, the message
would stay on the queue until the next run when it would be silently
dropped. I also tried a shadow_transport, but had the same results.
I thiink I've now solved it by adding a router for "-maildrop"
addresses and putting an "unseen deliver" in my user's exim filter to
that address.
I believe the problem is that the unseen pipe and shadow_transport
aren't treated as real messages, so when there's a temporary error
they aren't retried like normal deliveries are.
Is this a correct observation, or am I doing something else PEBKAC?

The remote desktop feature of Windows XP is really nice (and *novel*!).
As a Microsoft consultant can *remotely* disable the personal firewall
and control the system. We'll ignore the fact that this tampering with
the firewall is not logged, and more importantly, that the firewall
isn't restored when the clowns from Redmond are done with their job.
