Julian,
I upgraded from 4.29.2 to 4.29.3 this morning, and then
went thru my quarantine directories from yesterday and last
night to get the "very deeply nested archive" emails put
back into /var/spool/mqueue.in for delivery. I noticed
that most of these messages were chain letters or jokes
that had been forwarded a bzillion times. Maybe your goof
was not such a bad thing after all! I would be great if
email forwarded more than X times (say 10) could be quarantined
as "excessive forwards: possible chain letter". Cool...
