Looking at it with a fresh pair of eyes... I hadn't realised mlmmj logged
some things to syslog. That led me to this message:
2025-01-13T21:42:36.508886+00:00 dory /usr/bin/mlmmj-receive[3142800]:
mlmmj-receive.c:122: Could not stat : No such file or directory

It looked like there should have been a filename there. Reading the source,
it should have been the listdir supplied with -L. Bodging a fixed list name
into the Exim config made everything work (for that list).

Triple-checking the Exim config, I found I had put "local_part" where I
should have put "$local_part". (Doh.)

All working now.

Cheers,
Dave
