damn, it is the personal condition in the filter. Obviously it does
not find the current user address in any header, as the email is
addressed to an alias. Shouldn't the personal condition compare the
headers' content with the envelope recipient (that is the RCPT TO)
that is with the $original_local_part (and the original domain, but
how do we get that in a filter)?

If I try a partial solution with:

if personal alias "$original_local_part@$domain"

and log what I get in the filter I have for an email sent to
testalias (alias of testuser):


  Exim filter
logfile /var/log/testfilter
logwrite "original $original_local_part" >>>  testalias
logwrite "local part $local_part"        >>>  testuser
then
if ($h_subject: does not contain "SPAM?") then
logwrite "testing $original_local_part@$domain"  >>> testing  
testalias@mydomain
if personal alias "$original_local_part@$domain" then
logwrite "test success"                          >>> never gets here,  
test fails. Why?
mail
[...]


endif
endif


must I expand "personal" as in filter.txt:


The basic "personal" test is roughly equivalent to the  
following:            |

   not error_message

     ( $thisaddress contains "$local_part@$domain" )  
and                      |
   not foranyaddress

replacing $local_part with $original_local_part?

Is this a bug or is it too late..?
