Hi ppl,
I have a box with multiple domain names. I've configured the exim
according to examples in Cxx and
http://www.reedmedia.net/software/virtualmail-pop3d/mda/configure-for-exim-3.33
Part of the configuration directs exim to save the mails in to
/var/spool/virtual/$domain/$local_part
from exim.conf:
local_domains = "${primary_hostname}:\
lsearch;/etc/virtual/domains"
Transport
virtual_localdelivery:
driver = appendfile
create_directory = true
directory_mode = 700
file = /var/spool/virtual/${domain}/${local_part}
user = mail
group = mail
mode = 660
My box has few names for the same domain:
file /etc/virtual/domains:
domain1.com
www.domain1.com
peace.domain.com
www.peace.domain1.com
wwwpeace.domain1.com
www.pece.domain1.com
domain2.com
www.domain2.com
war.domain2.com
www.war.domain2.com
...
Now, my question is How will the exim create the subdirectories in
/var/spool/virtual (will it create directories like like
/var/spool/virtual/domain1.com, /var/spool/virtual/
www.domain1.com,
/var/spool/virtual/
www.peace.doman1.com ..... )
or how can I force the mails sent to
*.domain1.com
to be saved to
/var/spool/virtual/domain1.com/
/var/spool/virtual/domain2.com/
I've found some address rewiriting hooks but I am not sure if it is
the "simplest" (and a little bit unclear for me) way how to do it -
maybe via partial search. (the simplest solution is to make symbolic
links in /var/spool/virtual to the corresponding directories e.g. the
/var/spool/virtual/
www.peace.domain1.com will point to the
/var/spool/domain1.com and so on. - is it correct solution ?)
The second question is about default users. The director is :
virtual_alias:
driver = aliasfile
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe
domains = lsearch;/etc/virtual/domains
file = /etc/virtual/${domain}/aliases
search_type = lsearch*
user = mail
qualify_preserve_domain
how to catch all mails to non-existing users and put them to the
domain's defaultmailuser ? It is enough if i put to the
/etc/virtual/domain1.com/aliases file a line with
mike@domain1: user@???
*@domain1: user@???
?
The actual exim conf is mixture of Debian's woody
exim.conf and
http://www.reedmedia.net/software/virtualmail-pop3d/mda/configure-for-exim-3.33
and is attached to the mail. There is only one IP for the box, and there
is no MX record in DNS for domain1.
the /etc/virtual/domains contains lines as above and the
/etc/virtual/domain1.com/aliases contain:
*@domain1.com: peace@???
and
/etc/virtual/domain2.com/aliases
*@domain2.com: war@???
the /etc/virtual/doman1.com/passwd contains:
peace:blahblahpasspeace
user:blablahpassuser
and
/etc/virtual/doman1.com/passwd
war:blahblahpasswar
user:blahblahpassuser
Sorry for such a long mail and maybe stupid questions but i did not
found the correct solution :( :)
Thank You
Miro
