Ok, some mails no longer get properly sorted, but on this machine this
is tolerable. But procmail is gone now.
Now I get only single e-mails (with all the changes in the settings
shown earlier).
However, my server extensivly uses procmail (and logcheck), so this
combo should really work. I have no idea how we can debug this in the
hard freeze now. (My server is running stable, and does so for a
reason).
From my side, I'm now back to work, so before Friday I won't have much
time for debugging.
I would suggest to install a machine with local exim (per debconf) and
some simple procmail rules, maybe just installing procmail is
sufficient, I don't know.
And maybe for postponing the changes in 1.4.4 for the next development
cycle?
