The obvious way to do this would be to make sinden.info.com a local
domain. Is there some reason why you have not done this? You can set
local_domains_includes_host
if you don't want to put an explicit name in a shared configuration
file. Exim will then skip the alias search the second time round and
go on to do a local delivery. Well, actually, depending on how your
domains are set up, it might do one redundant pass. For example:
(1) aliasfile turns "jimmy@???" into "jimmy@???"
(2) aliasfile turns "jimmy@???" into "jimmy@???"
(3) aliasfile is skipped because it has already processed
"jimmy@???".
You can save even this waste of resource by setting the "new_director"
option on the aliasfile director appropriately, if you are worried
enough by it.
