Please note that this variable could also be useful when delivering to a
Maildir, to set up a tag (L=\d+) which then could be used by a
RFC-compliant pop3 daemon (such as courier-pop3d) to calculate accurate
message size fast (i.e. without having to read whole message contents).

For now I have a patched maildrop and pop3d to do this on my qmail box.
But when I finally migrate to exim, this would be one of the features I
would need...
