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? -- DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #1 from Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : 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.
