The solution is probably right under my nose, but that makes it invisible to me.
I have installed 2.6.6 on a linux server using Exim for mail processing. I am using mailman on the same domain to host the list in order to keep testing all in one place.
(I imagine this could be a problem in the long run, but for now dupes in the forum would be a welcome sight  )
I have set a filter and when I test it get the following result.
| Quote: |
Filter Trace Results:
Condition is true: $header_subject: contains eureka
Return-path copied from sender
Sender = webster(at)server3(dot)aplusservers(dot)com
Recipient = webster(at)server3(dot)aplusservers(dot)com
Testing Exim filter file "/etc/vfilters/nmweb.org"
Save message to: /home/webster/CIGforum/scripts/maillist.php 4 0660
Filtering set up at least one significant delivery or other action.
No other deliveries will occur.

AFAICS that means things are working. But the posts do not appear in the forum.
I have beaten my poor brain silly trying to get this to work. You are my last hope.

1 - I do not know for sure, but exim seems to pipe the whole message.
2 - n00b - don't know what debug code I would use.
As to the second half of the question - now I have real trouble. I went to unlock the files and it said they seemed unlocked, but I could try to hit the unlock button again (you know the drill, I'm sure.) I got literally around 600 lines of errors.
The paths are convoluted and shortened.
an example
Warning: opendir(public_html): failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/webster/public_html/cigforum/adm/admlock.php on line 42
ERROR: Unable to open "public_html" directory
ERROR: couldn't chmod "/home/webster/public_html/cigforum/../forumold/./blank.gif"
ERROR: couldn't chmod "/home/webster/public_html/cigforum/../forumold/./lib.js"
ERROR: couldn't chmod "/home/webster/public_html/cigforum/../forumold/./php.php"
Forumold is an earlier installation of fudforum that was trashed and renamed. I don't see why it even comes into the picture. The present installation (cigforum) used a completely new mysql database.
3 - sorry - no shell access at the moment

Hmm I think you were running an old version 2.6.5 or 2.6.6 that has a bug with locking/unlocking. The 1st step is to upgrade the forum to 2.6.7RC2.

Hmm I have to wonder what were the initial permissions to allow the forum to chmod directories it didn't have permissions to in the 1st place, unless all files were chmoded 666 in the 1st place.
You can run a unix commands:
"find -type f | chmod 644"
and
"find -type d | chmod 755"
These should restore the permissions.

As I said, I have no shell access on my server, only cpanel access. I have sent the script to my wholesaler, hopefully he will be able to run them in my space.

but the entire site is unaccessible
I can access the cpanel
but can't reach any other http access
and no response from the wholesaler yet
If I can't run the script, how do I get back on-line. How could the script in fudforum have fucked me up so completely!!??

Upload it via ftp.
The only way this could've happened is that your files were all chmoded in such a way as to allow an application running as a webserver to change their permission. Normally, the worse thing the bug you were affected could do is screw up the forum's own permissions, which is something that is easily corrected.

You need to unlock the forum because by default the forum's file permissions are such that only the webuser by from the forum was installed can access the forum's files. This is done to prevent other users on the system from reading and even possibly modifying your forum files.
You need to use the admin unlock feature.
Yes, you run the forum unlocked.
