Subject: [EXIM] How gets mail to locked users handled?
A Unix-Exim Problem:
We often have the problem to lock users (basically it is a script with
passwd -l and moving the home-dir to another place).

What we would like to have is that mail to a locked user is handled the
same way as it done when the user is unknown.

Now the mainlog of exim says:
"1999-02-04 14:31:28 108OsS-0004xh-00 == pmoritz@???
D=userforward defer (-1): userforward director failed to stat
/home5/locked/sos/pmoritz (Permission denied)"

This is clear, because there is no permission for the "locked" directories.
But the mail should be rejected and returned to the mailhub. Is there a
way to formulate this in the exim configure?

Regards,
Reginald
