Ah, I made the wrong assumption that it wasn't processing the filter
file *at all*.

What is happening is that I am sending a mail to two people using
Agent under Windows. Agent connects via SMTP to my Exim (4.22 on
Debian Linux) and the mail is passed to the filter. The incoming mail
has a $header_To of "a@???, e@???". After I do some tests in
the filter file, the email is given the green light and I say

deliver $header_To which of course is

deliver "a@???, e@???".

So although I"d obfuscated it, you were 100% on target.

Thanks for your help...

Cheers,

Cliff
