Yeah, that would be ideal. Can you add it to the wish-list please?

I might be able to get away with a Delivered-To filter for my personal 
domain. I don't forward from any outside addresses, but I do fetch a 
few, but fetchmail authenticates. I think I'll just set up a rule to 
delete these double-bounces automatically, and look forward to having 
this filter in spamdyke. I won't hold my breath though. ;)

Thanks Sam.
