Lots of ways to do this, the easiest is to use an alias and add the
"include_domain" option, which makes exim do a lookup on the complete
address. Other ways could include say making the alias file be
/wherever/${domain}.aliases or using a smartuser combined with a db lookup
(everything can be done that way).

Taken from my config file....

#=====================================================================
#
# multi_alias director
# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#
# Handles full domain aliases
#
multi_alias:
driver = aliasfile;
include_domain,
file = EXICONF_DIR/multi_alias.db,
search_type = dbm

} Am I just dense, or is it hiding in there somewhere?
Ahh... no comment.... :-)
