It is useful only in + conjunction with -be (that is, when testing string expansions). It must be + followed by a message id; Exim loads the given message from its spool before + doing the expansions, thus setting message-specific variables such as + $message_size and the header variables. The $recipients variable is + available. This feature is provided to make it easier to test expansions + that make use of these variables.
