It appears that using the emergency option will cause the system to
endlessly loop if the emergency file cannot be written to. I am running
this filter in conjunction with exim4 on Debian 4.0, perl version
5.8.8. I have to be sure to set the correct user and group in the exim
transport, or this bug will appear. This should be obvious I suppose,
but the result in this situation should be to fail rather than lock up
the computer.
