Greetings.
We are attempting to get Exim 3.03 into production, and along the way, we
are working around some of the aspects of our delivery. Everything was
working great, but I've run into a small problem with autoresponders from
the .forward file filter. I have included the -d9 output from Exim in this
email, as well as the relevant configuration sections.
I've gone over the documentation and the -d9 output, but I am unable to spot
what I'm doing wrong. I'm sure it's something trivial.. :) Basically it's
not doing the auto-responding part of the filter. The delivery to the local
mailbox works fine.
My thanks in advance for any assistance anybody can lend me on this issue.
:)
Sincerely, Warren
