Well, Phil... sometimes some (more) examples would work
wonders in your documentation. It is clearly one of the
most excellent documentations I have ever seen, but some
examples of whatever ugly (but nice) things you can do
with lookups and stuff would help a bit more.

Now, this *does* work. And not only because I added a
hostname after the ${value} ... The spaces after the
"match {" are evil, btw, it looks for < xxx> if there
is a space.

new_address = ${if match {${domain} } {(.*)\\.bwev\\.org} { ${lookup {$1} lsearch {/etc/exim/subdomains} {$value@???} } } }

Whatever, it works, thanks to a mailer that seems to be
made to make the admin's life easier. Thanks, Phil. ;-)

Alexander,
still having a flu, but it's getting better :->
