Thanks, that works for half of it. Maildir delivery now contains the
line count.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work with my procmail transport:
# This transport is used for procmail
procmail_pipe:
headers_add = Lines: $body_linecount
return_path_add
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
driver = pipe
check_string = "From "
command = "/usr/bin/procmail -d ${local_part}"
escape_string = ">From "
group = mail
user = $local_part
My guess is that exim does add the line count, but it gets removed by
procmail and not re-added when procmail delivers to maildir :-(
But eh, that's hardly exim's fault.
It's really stupid for procmail to remove the Lines header that exim
already adds, but if one really wants, there is a
workaround:

It doesn't depend on it, but it sure uses it to show the message size
instead of parsing (or in the case of imap) downloading the whole
message body.

Right.
Considering that procmail stupidly strips an already present lines
header, I'll probably switch to that.
