3# This is a Perl script to demonstrate the possibilities of on-the-fly
4# delivery filtering in Exim. It is presented with a message on its standard
5# input, and must copy it to the standard output, transforming it as it
6# pleases, but of course it must keep to the syntax of RFC 822 for the headers.
7
8# The filter is run before any SMTP-specific processing, such as turning
9# \n into \r\n and escaping lines beginning with a dot.

33# with "Received:" headers is not in any case to be encouraged.
