Hi Markus,
Thanks for getting back to me.

Since it is me who got to the bottom of this and since we don't
actually know whether Thilo uses masqmail at all, let me answer your
question.
This is my /etc/default/masqmail
INIT_SMTP_DAEMON="false"
INIT_QUEUE_DAEMON="false"
INIT_FETCH_DAEMON="false"
QUEUE_DAEMON_IVAL="-q10m"
FETCH_DAEMON_IVAL="-go5m"
IPUP_RUNQUEUE="false"
IPUP_FETCH="false"
IFUP_IFACES="none"

It seems like you've missed what I've written in my previous email,
it is IFACE variable which holds "--all", not IFUP_IFACES.
Also, since IFACE is not declared anywhere in the script and by
testing I found out that is being passed from if{up,down} as no
matter which /etc/network/ip-up.d/ script I put "echo $IFACE"
I get "--all" after running "ifup -a".
Running "ifup wlan0" for example echoes "wlan0" as the IFACE.

I guess IFACE shouldn't hold "--all" in the first place since a lot of
scripts in the above location rely on it holding only an interface's
name or all the scripts should be corrected not to use $IFACE.
I'm getting more and more confused to be honest and am not sure which
behaviour is correct, "--all" being passed in IFACE by ifupdown
(can someone more knowledgeable correct me if I'm wrong here) or
scripts assuming the usage of $IFACE to be only a single interface
name.
