Hello Mark, thank you very much for making this clear. I have another question. See below.

In the above case, it would be: > X-Original-X-UID: 32 > > If you decide to try tmail or dmail, be sure to get a modern version. > This is a relatively recently added facility. The latest UW IMAP > toolkit sources (which include tmail and dmail as well as imapd and > ipop3d) are always on: > ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/mail/imap.tar.Z Because I don't have a recent version of uw-imap (not even modern) and I would prefer to leave uw-imap as it is, do you think it is a good idea to use exim for filtering out the X-UID header? I would set "headers_remove = X-UID" in the procmail_pipe driver. TIA and kind regards Timo
