I've had someone else report this as well: the current exim lower-cases
domain names before trying rewrite rules.

Was the change deliberate? If not, will it be fixed? I can't see anything
about it in the changelog.

Package: exim
Version: 3.31-1
Severity: normal

You can't have uppercase letters in the rewritting rules anymore (they
worked fine before I upgraded exim).

With the new version of exim I get the following debugging output:
hunger@??? does not match *@internalNet.de

So the following rule is broken:
*@internalNet.de ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
                         {$value}fail} frFs


while this one works:
*@internalnet.de  ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
                         {$value}fail} frFs


This kind of 'bug' is the one I hate the most! Took me days to figure this
out...

Regards,
Tobias

PS: Thanks for packaging exim: I'd gone crazy if I've had to compile it first
    before having problems like this;-)
