Hmm again, body_linecount and body_zerocount are written to the spool (-H)
file, but not the rest. But AFAICT, those variables are purely informational,
do not control Exim's processing of the message, and are written to the -H
file merely so that they won't have to be recalculated on every delivery
attempt. Is that correct? On the other hand, message_body_size and
message_size are recalculated, but that's much easier.
