Hi,

in a previous thread in which someone asked how to freeze mails whoch
recipient is unknown there was the tip, to put in the domainaliasfile an
entry like '*: :freeze:'

so, I want the same thing, and so I do that, but


/opt/exim/bin/exim -d 9 -v -bt unknown@??? 2>&1 |less


gave me an output with an error-message like:

trying to match *
internal_search_find: file="/opt/exim/domainaliases/crow.de/aliases"
type=lsearch key="*"
file lookup required for *
in /opt/exim/domainaliases/crow.de/aliases
lookup yielded: :freeze:
parse_extract_addresses: :freeze:
extract item: :freeze:
domain_aliases director: error for unknown
message: error in alias file /opt/exim/domainaliases/crow.de/aliases:
missing or malformed local part (expected word or "<") in ":freeze:"
search_tidyup called
unknown@??? cannot be resolved at this time:
error in alias file /opt/exim/domainaliases/crow.de/aliases: missing or
malformed local part (expected word or "<") in ":freeze:"

so, is :freeze: a domainalias, that I must declare or set up anywhere?
I tried that in exim 3.14 and a fresh compiled 3.15...



bye
