when checking something like
        # Exim filter
        if $h_to: contains "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" then
                save Mail/personal
        endif
apparently it treats the "To:" field as one big string:

        To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]

so if a list-reply wound up looking like

        To: debian-user@lists.debian.org, [EMAIL PROTECTED]

i'd have to find some other way to figure out if it arrived at
my doorstep via debian-user broadcast, or by personal missive.

how?

:
Looking to use your Debian machine as a FIREWALL? No problem!
Try "apt-get install ipmasq"... After you've got your
/etc/network/interfaces file set up properly, ipmasq will
save you lots of work, setting up firewall and routing
tables automatically.
