repost (slightly revised): first message didn't appear on list?
I was having the same problem with virtual mail.... but when I reversed
the directors as suggested I am unable to send mail or receive mail. I
was in a hurry to swap it back, but the approximate send error:
Unable to send the message because of error in local-part
<user@???>.
The mail we rejected said:
A message that you sent could not be delivered blah blah, The following
address(es) failed:
user@???
(generated from webmaster@???)
Unknown local-part "user" in domain "ourdomain.com"
My directors the way they appear now (working):
# This director matches local user mailboxes.
localuser:
driver = localuser
transport = local_delivery
virtual:
domains = "lsearch;/usr/local/exim/domains"
driver = aliasfile
include_domain
no_more
file = "/usr/local/exim/aliases"
search_type = lsearch
end
my local domain is in the domains file... as well as the virtual.
any ideas??
Thanks!

from the config file
# DIRECTORS CONFIGURATION #
# Specifies how local addresses are handled #
######################################################################
# ORDER DOES MATTER #
# A local address is passed to each in turn until it is accepted. #
######################################################################
it goes through the directors til a match is found and then goes no
further.
put the local_delivery config one _after_ the virtual one and it should
fix
it up.
