1) You should consider upgrading, your version of Exim is coming up for 3
years old and barely supported
2) Having said that, the filter syntax hasn't changed since your version,
and is fully documented at
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-3.30/doc/html/filter.html (Your version).
You've confused general config file syntax with filter syntax. You need
something like
if
$recipients_count is above 1
then
logwrite ....
save ...
endif
That assumes that $recipients_count is available in a filter in Exim 3 - the
docs are not explicit on this.
You might also look at the 'personal' test for the sort of thing you're
trying to do - might help.
