a mailproc.tab with only mailbox line in it is useless, because it's the
default behaviour.

the command is only fired once in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] case. in other cases it
is not fired, because xmail stops processing the the message before it
arrives the filters. the reasen is that xmail does not find a valid account
for the email adress and return "Mailbox unavailible". You have to add a new
account in the domain, call it '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and add a * alias for it:

aliasadd my.domain * log

the log account gets an empty mailproc.tab so that messages that go to it
(in that case all messages to my.domain except [EMAIL PROTECTED]) are deleted.
now you define the filter on [EMAIL PROTECTED] - that should do the job.
