When dealing with mail from this list I don't think your rule there will
work. Here's a snip from the exim documentation regarding the "personal"
keyword:
----- Begin snip -----
A common requirement is to distinguish between incoming personal mail and
mail from a mailing list. In particular, this test is normally required for
so-called 'vacation messages'. The condition
personal
is a shorthand for
$header_to: contains [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
$header_from: does not contain [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
$header_from: does not contain server@ and
$header_from: does not contain daemon@ and
$header_from: does not contain root@ and
$header_subject: does not contain "circular" and
$header_precedence: does not contain "bulk" and
$header_precedence: does not contain "list" and
$header_precedence: does not contain "junk"
----- End snip -----
The very first line there is where this fails when dealing with this list.
The To: line does *not* contain your address. It contains the *list*
address.
