} sample transports entry:
} uux_domain:
} driver = pipe;
} command = "/usr/bin/uux - -r ${domain}!rmail ${local_part}@${domain}",
} pipe_as_creator,
} return_output
Personally I would do something a little different... I have not tried
this with exim but it *should* work OK (and did with smail). Rather than
pass the addresses in the UUCP command (which can hit problems with lots
of recipients, and can cause the uucp software to happily add bangs in all
sorts of embarrassing places, pass the message as a batched SMTP
transaction. That would give a transport something like:-
bsmtp_over_uucp:
driver = pipe;
command = "/usr/bin/uux - -a${sender_address} ${host}!rsmtp",
bsmtp,
pipe_as_creator,
return_output
rsmtp would be a link to exim (or be provided by the mail/uucp s/w) on the
remote host.
I haven't tested this with exim but it should work fine. The message is
handled as a bsmtp transaction which can protect it from anything else
that UUCP may choose to do.
