Hi Stephen,

I finally figured out what 'extension' is supposed to be.  Courier,
being more like qmail, puts the extension in variable EXT, not
EXTENSION.

EXT=confirm-1158798977.8953.9c5e54

Trouble is, maildrop prevents default access to the environment
variables, unless you import them.

so, 
import EXT near the top of .mailfilter completely solves seven or eight
hours of messing around.

Perhaps this is documented somewhere, but I didn't find it, just
stumbled on it by viewing the tmda-rfilter source code.

Thanks for getting me pointed in the right direction.

Regards,
Rich
