Now solved! The solution is really simple but I'll collate all the facts
and write it up properly.
The quick answer is to add "InputMailFilters=" into the DaemonOptions
line of the sendmail or .cf or .mc file.
You'll end up with a line something like:
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtps, Name=SSLMTA, M=sa, InputMailFilters=')dnl
Each Daemon has it's own options INCLUDING the set of filters it uses -
in other words, confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS isn't the only game in town. The
example above simply sets the list of filters to null. I haven't found
this documented anywhere yet, but it seems to work. Many thanks to PR in
France, who emailed me this vital piece of the jigsaw.
This obviously won't work if your using STARTTLS as an on port 25, but
that's a bit of a bodge anyway. If you're going to upload mail from a
public WiFi you should be using SSL and authentication, and port 25 will
probably be blocked anyway, so having to use 465 and forcing
authentication on (M=a) is no hardship.
Thanks to everyone who's helped get this sorted.
Regards, Frank.
