It would be nice to know that you really caught these with the filename= and
not some other rule you may have in place.
I keep asking IPSwitch to include a tag in the header of messages that are
redirected by their rules so that we can look at the header and see which
rule fired to move the message. That would really clear up this confusion,
and would help when fixing rules that catch things we don't want to catch.
It seems like such a simple thing. I wish they weren't so deaf.
Maybe if a few more people ask for this they'll hear it.
