I've managed to get the query for nisplus to work with default entries
by using 2 alias drivers, one that does a query like so.
virtual_aliases:
driver = aliasfile
include_domain
search_type = nisplus
query = [alias=${local_part}@${domain}],mail_aliases.org_dir:expansion
And then one that does this to catch the catchalls.
virtual_aliases_catchalls:
driver = aliasfile
include_domain
search_type = nisplus
query = [alias=@${domain}],mail_aliases.org_dir:expansion
I tried one driver with
queries = [alias=${local_part}@${domain}],mail_aliases.org_dir\:expansion:\
[alias=@${domain}],mail_aliases.org_dir:expansion
But it didnt work properly.
However, now I have a new problem. If the catchall address fails but the
name used happens to match a name in the local system aliases file, or a
local address from the password file or nisplus local user directory,it
will be delivered to that address. The solution that was in place for
this with sendmail was to have a catchall address like this.
@somedomain.com error:nouser User Unknown
Appearanly sendmail knew what to do with this message returned from
nisplus, where exim considers it a syntax error and freezes the message.
Any ideas how I can exim to do the right thing when it gets this return
from nisplus?
