"Well," he answered cautiously, "you might try directing messages with (be careful, this is PCRE, now):"

if ( /^Precedence:\s+bulk/ ) { to "Maildir" }

and then catching the rest. I use this for vacation messages (and a whole lot more) and was going to post my whole routine, but then it got to beer time, so I didn't ...

Doesn't this depend on $STUPID_MAILER reliably setting precedence correctly? It seems the same folks who send vacation notices also use silly mailers.

Definitely. I don't know what to say. Very recently, a Novell Groupwise Kiwi (Kiwis are New Zealand Idiots) $STUPID_MAILER calling itself gwav@ird.govt.nz decided to get it in for me. For every post I send to the amavisd-new ML, it sends me a "The message was blocked for the following reason(s): Content filter The message containted (sic) the following information: Subject: Re: [AMaViS-user] Russian SPAM". It really does come from ird.govt.nz, according to my headers.

I put in a Postfix PCRE header check REDIRECT filter that rejects it and resends it to post@ird.govt.nz. He will continue to drink his own bathwater, until he sends a message to post@my.site, apologizing.

But this is a digression. Certainly people use $STUPID_MAILER software, but the bulk mailer stipend is the least one can do not to send vacation messages to mailing lists and the like. It comes just before my maildrop vacation routine (it's beer time again ...)
