Not my choice: I simply run a virtual domain.
However the host is indeed upgrading.

Been there, read it (several times). Understanding comes only slowly. Some
of the config syntax (mainly variables) is available at filter level.

Ah, right, that explains it.

Yes, this filter appears to work. Thanks.
I have tested $recipients_count and, yes, it is available: I can cause it
to be logged in my main logfile. However, it's passed from the config
setup, so I can't use the
/usr/lib/sendmail -bf .forward < test1
to check it!
However, this test now doesn't fall over at this point, so presumably the
filter's OK, just that in this test, $recipients_count isn't set.
