Our system is set up as a UUCP gateway for a number of domains, for
both incoming and outgoing mail.
Unfortunately, the remote UUCP sites do not always fully qualify the
envelope and header addresses with their domain. I have uucp setup to
call a custom rmail script which determines which UUCP site a message
was received from, and qualify the envelope sender if needed.
However I also need to correct any headers which are not already
properly qualified. I can't just set 'qualify_domain', because it
depends on the UUCP host the message is received from.
I tried adding `-Dqualify_domain=theuucp.domain.com`, but it appears to
be giving up root privelege (even though for this test I was calling
exim from a root shell), and is unable to deliver the message, but does
leave it in the queue, and the next queue run is using the global
qualify_domain instead of the one I want.
I am guessing exim does not qualify headers when placing the message in
the queue, but instead waits until delivery time. Is there a way I can
get it to qualify any unqualified headers with a setting provided at
the time of receipt?
