Assumpte: [Exim] alias & pipe does not work
Hi there,



I've got a problem with piping an alias to a command.
My /etc/alias looks like:
rt:     |"/usr/local/rt/bin/rt-mailgate abuse correspond"


mailgate is part of a tracking system. I should get a tracking number after sending a mail
But all I get is an delivery erroer Message which looks like:

>   rt@???:
>    generated |"/usr/local/rt/bin/rt-mailgate abuse correspond":
>    Child process of address_pipe transport returned 69 (could mean service or program unavailable) from command:
>    "/usr/local/rt/bin/rt-mailgate abuse correspond"



The exim-user archive says that the ploblem lies with the executed programm
and the user archive of the other software says the problem lies with the MTA.
Their suggestion (with using sendmail) is:

>Sendmail has a program called smrsh. smrsh restricts what binaries
>can be run from sendmail aliases. I think it keeps the programs in
>/etc/smrsh on redhat6. add a symlink from
>/usr/local/rt/bin/rt-mailgate to /etc/smrsh/rt-mailgate and things
>should work better.



Is there someting like this in exim ?
