I couldn't believe that there weren't more examples to be found. But I use
the perl feature and got it working in about 10 minutes! I love it!

Let's see: postgres-based white/black lists are pretty easy to do in perl and
much easier to read/maintain than as a condition in exim.

I've got a perlscript that looks at a message and decides what folder to
deliver it to. That is nice.

There is lots of other things I intend to do that I probably couldn't do
without perl.

Just my $.02

Mike.
