Subject: [Exim] strange save behavior from 4.14 to 4.20
We use a number of filters with the following form to seperate mail from various sources into subfolders on our IMAP server using exim:

# Move freebsd-stable mail to its own folder
if $h_to: contains stable@??? or $h_cc: contains stable@??? then
    save "/home/grayskies/mailusers/david/.Mailing Lists.FreeBSD.Stable/"
        finish
endif


Up through exim 4.14 on my FreeBSD 4.8 system this worked without a flaw. This morning we upgraded to 4.20 and all of a sudden all mail started appearing in the main Inbox. At first we thought something had gone wrong with the filter, but a look at the debug output shows that the filter runs perfectly and runs the correct save command, but the mail ends up being saved in the top level folder regardless. I've included our maildir transport section and the debug output below. If anyone has any idea what might be happening we would love to have our folder sorting back. ;)
