i wasnt sure if i could use that "if" construction directly in a .qmail
file (can that be done?), and cat was the only thing i could think of to
"keep the data in mind" in order to handle them differently depending on
the result of "if" (i also tried storing the mail in a variable as in
MESSAGE="$(cat)", but that screwed things up ...

yeah, good idea ;)
