Betreff: [Exim] alias file for multiple domains & rejecting users with *@xyz.com
Hi! I've read the manual and searched the mailist archive to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I run exim with multiple domains, and use a single alias file for all
domains. I have a local shell account and mailbox on my system for 'bob'.
I want bob to get mail at 'bob@???' and reject mail to 'bob@???'
In my configure file I have:

system_aliases:
driver = aliasfile
file = /etc/aliases
search_type = lsearch*@
include_domain = true
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe

In my aliases file I have:

bob@???:    bob
*@one.com:      :unknown:
...<skip a few lines>...
tim@???:    tim
jim@???:    jim
*@two.com:      :unknown:


But mail to 'bob@???' still gets put in bob's mailbox.
Why? What did I miss? It seems like the existence of a local
user/mailbox overrides the '*@two.com' catch all.

                              ,,,
