By default the exim.conf as it is in gentoo does not support mailfiltering by
either procmail 
or maildrop. This is very easy to add and simplifies the use and setup of these
mailfilter 
utilities greatly. I patch will be attached. It is partly based on a debian
exim.conf file.

I also propose a different patch to the current maildir patch. It is
functionally the same, but 
in my eyes cleaner towards users. Also to be attached.


Reproducible: Always

I have no clue,
I'm currently working on a new project, which is consuming all my time. if i have a spare hour AND don't feel like working on VLC i'll see if I can test it again, but i doubt that will be soon.
