Again, I don't this should be the default. The sysadmin has configured
Exim to use a filter; delivering without it may not be a good thing.
(Consider a filter that is doing some kind of private encryption...)
Even as an option it would not be particularly easy to do because of the
way Exim is implemented. And I suspect it is of very minority interest.
