Hi,
I have a system which is on a local domain (megadodo.umb) which is
connected through the internet via dialup. In order to get my Envelope
>From header rewritten correctly (for external mails only), I followed the
solution in Q1003 of the FAQ : set up a second exim daemon to handle all
external mails.
Since I was unable to get the 'domains' option working with the
lookuphost driver for a router, here is what I did to get the addresses of
remote users on the megadodo.umb domain resolve correctly :
(From the primary exim.conf file)
qualify :
driver = domainlist
route_list = "^[A-Za-z0-9]*$ $domain.megadodo.umb"
local_net :
driver = domainlist
domains = "*.megadodo.umb"
transport = local_net_smtp
route_list = * $domain byname
host_find_failed = fail_soft
self = send
internet :
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * localhost byname
self = send
end
The transport section of the same file looks like :
local_net_smtp :
driver = smtp
remote_smtp :
driver = smtp
service = 26
end
The second exim daemon is run on port 26.
Now, here is some test output from exim :
pgmr$/usr/sbin/exim -C /etc/exim.conf -bt -d11 ken@zaphod

Will you wont you will you wont you work?
Notice that in this mail above, the ken@zaphod address has not
been expanded to ken@???, even though the output of 'exim
-bt' shows that exim has resolved it correctly. How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance,
Jor-el
