You can comment out the verbose stuff. You can put any text you want in
BACNREASON_HEADER= but make sure there is a space after the colon. I see
that the final delivery stuff is a tad inefficient - I do the same test
twice, but never mind.
These recipes check for a match and put the text you want in the tag in a
variable. The E stops further tests. The mail is tagged and delivered to
IN.bacn if the variable is not empty.
If you notice syntax and recipes in this example from elsewhere,
particularly from this list, that is because they probably are.
You get something like this in the header:
X-Mundungus-Bacn-Reason: #0130 Nikon
