Package: exim
Version: 3.11-2
Severity: normal

The director suffix option is supposed to be a string-list.

However, suffix = .*:-* is _not_ equivalent to two separate directors with
.* rsp. -*; it does not recognize an address like user-some.thing-else
as belonging to user (which, in this specific case, leads to a loop
and a segfault - I guess this is a separate error, where some buffer
length is not checked. ("This case": undeliverable mail is delivered to
"undeliverable-<original localpart>" which is an alias))
