--- Comment #8 from Martin Kealey <from-exim-bugzi...@kurahaupo.gen.nz> --- I take your point about filter=nodots. It's worth noting that POSIX says that the getdents syscall may or may not return the "." and ".." entries, so the old code would not have reliably returned them. So I would suggest that the onus should be reversed: the "." and ".." entries should be excluded by default, and only accepted if "filter=allowdots" is specified (or "filter=dir", if we insist on backwards compatibility). That is, when you don't filter by type, the values "." and ".." should be hidden, as they currently are with "filter=subdir". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
