Αντικείμενο: Re: [exim] System filter
I may not be understanding this but it does seem that the SMTP dialogue
from the mail command in the system filter is doing something I do not
expect.
I'm using Exim 4.71 and with the following stanza in the message filter

if "${if def:header_X-Attachment: {there}}" is there
then
        mail to $recipients
             from "postmaster@???"
             subject "Small attachment detected"
             text "A message from $sender_address with subject $h_subject: 
contained a small attachment"
       logwrite "Detected: Small attachment detected for $recipients"
       seen finish
endif


fails with an error message containing
 mail to Tucker@???
    generated by system-filter
    SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT 
TO:<>Tucker@???>:


The log entry is

2010-08-11 10:48:34 1Oj7vE-0004Ce-G9 <= Tucker@???

The recipient address appears to be correct ($recipients output to the log
correctly), but the RCPT TO has an extra > in front of the address.
So where is that extra > coming from?

Check out http://lists.exim.org/lurker/message/20030514.203046.6b05039f.en.=

I once wrote a quick script to do this for the fun of it. You might
have some additional issues w/ TLS, but the basics are there.
