Right. That makes sense. I gotta tell you what I am doing, before you would
know how to fix it.
I am a little unsure here, but I believe this is the relevant info from the
config file:
virtual_localdelivery:
driver = appendfile
directory =
${lookup{$local_part@$domain:homedir}dbmnz{/services/mail/exim/etc/virtusers
.db}{$value/Maildir}}
user =
${lookup{$local_part@$domain:uid}dbmnz{/services/mail/exim/etc/virtusers.db}
{$value}}
group = mail
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
mode = 0600
maildir_format
virtual_localusers:
driver = aliasfile
transport = virtual_localdelivery
file = /services/mail/exim/etc/virtusers.db
search_type = dbmnz
group = mail
include_domain
Just to restate the problem - I believe I am looking for a way to have exim
not put the UUCP style From line at the top of maildir format mailbox files.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Steve.
