Ah, since the last problem years ago I switched to do all mail handling
by myself. I never ever use a smarthost of my ISP. I have my own.

Sorry, it is not all open to public. :-) But simply look at the exchange
disease. (german: Austauschkrankheit)

Sure, works in most of the cases. But there are some where it will not
work:

- - exchange thing
- - Users who reply by direct mail but you wish to have that mails in the
  mailinglist folder
- - Ill lists
- - Users who reply to the list *and* to me (double mails) which I wish to
  have all in the mailinglist folder (Like I do with this mail. :-)
- - ...

Well, procmail is called by exim the same way than they might call
deliver direct. There must be a way to pass the envelope information to
deliver when using it in a pipe from procmail.?
