This sounds like the task given in Q0308 in the FAQ. However, the
example given there does not work: exim complains "local@domain cannot
be resolved at this time: error in router: transport missing". When I
set a local transport (appendfile delivering to /dev/null), exim -bt
gives "router = generate_bounce, transport = dummy_delivery, host
localhost [unknown]", and when I set a remote transport (remote_smtp)
exim -bt gives "router = generate_bounce, transport = remote_smtp,
host localhost.example.com [127.0.0.1]". I never see debugging output
from any directors, so I suspect that the transfer to the local
directors doesn't work as the FAQ says.
Specification chapter 28.4, fourth list item, suggests that either the
"self=local" option or the route-list "* localhost byname" are not
properly recognized.
