Hi
I posted this question a couple of days ago but haven't had a response yet.
Apologies if this is a question that has been asked too many times before...
I have been studying the book and the archive since posting without success.
-----------------
I'm a new user of exim, hosting about 20 virtual domains (on sendmail at the
moment), trying to set up a default alias on each domain as a fallback for
unknown hosts...
I've used the default configuration file with the following additions. Mail
to an unknown virtual host is being placed in a new mailbox for that
addressee instead of into the fallback.
Snippets of config files:
------------------------------------------------
/usr/exim/virtual/wirelessnotes.co.uk/aliases...
*: dirk@???
dirk: dirk@???
-------------------------------------------
transport... (from mailing list archive)...
virtual_localdelivery:
driver = appendfile
create_directory = true
directory_mode = 700
file = /var/spool/virtual/${domain}/${local_part}
user = exim
group = exim
mode = 660
director... (sort of from O'Reilly Exim book)
virtual:
driver = aliasfile
domains = lsearch;/usr/exim/domains
file = /usr/exim/virtual/${domain}/aliases
search_type = lsearch*
transport = virtual_localdelivery
no_more
Running "exim -bt -d9 mary@???" shows a failed lookup for
'mary', followed by a successfull lookup for '*' but indicates that the
local_part is still 'mary'.
Any pointers gratefully received :-)
Dirk
