Hi all,

I have have googled through the archive and scanned the FAQ but couldn't
find any pointers on the following.

Consider my .forward file (attached), in particular the following rule:

    testprint $h_Sender:
    if      $h_Sender: matches "vim-return-([0-9]+)-paul=myitcv.org.uk@???"
    then    save Mail/Mailing_Lists/vim
    endif


The exim version is:

$ exim -bV
Exim version 4.20 #1 built 08-Jul-2003 13:59:46
Copyright (c) University of Cambridge 2003
Probably GDBM (native mode)
Support for: PAM TCPwrappers OpenSSL
Authenticators: plaintext spa
Routers: accept dnslookup ipliteral manualroute queryprogram redirect
Transports: appendfile autoreply pipe smtp
Configuration file is /etc/exim/exim.conf

$ exim -bf .forward < exim/test_vim.message
Sender taken from "From" line
Sender    = vim-return-43502-paul=myitcv.org.uk@???
Recipient = paj00@???
Testing Exim filter file forward


Logfile /homes/paj00/.exim-filter
Testprint:
Filtering did not set up a significant delivery.
Normal delivery will occur.


"Testprint" in the output corresponds to the rule above. The "From" line
in the input to the test is:


    From vim-return-43502-paul=myitcv.org.uk@??? Tue Feb 24 14:56:11 2004



Why is $h_sender: null in the testprint? For other inputs, $h_sender is
not null. eg where "From" line is:


    From y-devel-bounces+paul=myitcv.org.uk@??? Tue Feb 24
00:09:37 2004



output is:


Sender taken from "From" line
Sender    = y-devel-bounces+paul=myitcv.org.uk@???
Recipient = paj00@???
Testing Exim filter file forward


Logfile /homes/paj00/.exim-filter
Testprint: y-devel-bounces+paul=myitcv.org.uk@???
Save message to: Mail/Mailing_Lists/y-devel
Finish
Filtering set up at least one significant delivery or other action.
No other deliveries will occur.


I am clueless as to why $h_sender is null for the vim list. Please can
someone put my mind at ease?

Many thanks in advance.
