[Mimedefang] stream_by_recipient beginner

[Cliff Hayes]

Yes but I didn't do anything yet.  I'm trying to figure out how to use
stream_by_recipient to allow users to build a custom whitelist.  All I did
was add the stream_by_recipient.  I added no extra code to cause the message
to be discarded.  Am I supposed to move the spam checking code from
filter_end into stream_by_recipient?  Am I supposed to move the code from
filter_begin into stream_by_recipient?  From the man doc example it looks
like stream_by_recipient simply skips all the stuff in filter_begin for
multiple-recipient messages. Well I don't see how that helps me but I was
hoping to see something in the logs other than "discarded" to give me
something to go on. The doc describes what stream_by_recipient is for and
where to put it but not how to use it.

No, that looks normal.
And that "discarded" mail should appear than multiple times each with
exactly one recipient.
