Hi all,

As a lucky recipient of over 20 spams and 100 spam bounces per day, I
discovered ASK will utmost glee.

However, a small percentage of the bounces are still making it
through.

Here is the log entry for one that made it:

[email protected] is NOT listed in rc_mymails.

I'm using the 2.5.0 deb, called from my .procmailrc:

:0 fW
|/usr/bin/ask.py --procmail --loglevel=5 --logfile=/home/sv/.ask/ask.log

:0 e
$MAILDIR/trash

It seems to be following a procmail rule after that, and delivering it
to my inbox.  

However, it seems wrong to me that it says "Sender is mailer_daemon"
and "delivering mail".

Any ideas?

I'm using this .deb:

c4bf65d55f6edfb1fe68b10b11b7a60b  /usr/src/ask_2.5.0-1_all.deb

on a Sarge system...
