<div class="description"><p>
The <a href="DeliveryAgent.html">RFilter::DeliveryAgent</a> class allows
flexible delivery of a mail message to a mailbox. It is designed to make
mail filtering scripts easy to write, by allowing the filter author to
concentrate on the filter logic and not the particulars of the message or
folder format.
</p>
<p>
It is designed primarily to work as an <a
href="DeliveryAgent.html">DeliveryAgent</a> (local delivery agent) for an
SMTP server. It should work well as the basis for a script run from a
.forward or .qmail file.

can more properly deal with the exception.
