Subject: [Exim] local_domains_include_host has opposite effect
Hi there,

OK, another oddity...

local_domains_include_host seems to be having the oposite effect to that
intended. I've not noticed actual problems with this, but noticed it on
the debug=9 output.

Basically, when this option is set, it reports that the primary_hostname
is not in local_domains. When I leave it unset it doesn't even mention
it's checking to see if it's in local_domains.

The manual says that local_domains_include_host "has the same effect as
including '@' in local_domains - this produces the second set of results
below, i.e. the desired one.

Am I getting the wrong end of the stick here?

Config:
  local_domains_include_host = yes
  local_domains = dbm;/home/mail/db/local-domains.dbm
Results:
  Exim version 3.16 debug level 9 uid=0 gid=0
  probably Berkeley DB version 1.8x (native mode)
  search_open: dbm "/home/mail/db/local-domains.dbm"
  search_find: file="/home/mail/db/local-domains.dbm"
    key="buffy.commerce.uk.net" partial=-1
  LRU list:
    1/home/mail/db/local-domains.dbm
    End
  internal_search_find: file="/home/mail/db/local-domains.dbm"
    type=dbm key="buffy.commerce.uk.net"
  file lookup required for buffy.commerce.uk.net
    in /home/mail/db/local-domains.dbm
  lookup failed
  buffy.commerce.uk.net in local_domains? no (end of list)

  sender address = root@???
