I didn't do anything special :-)
It is the installation I moved from exim 3.34 to 3.952 lately, running
on Linux 2.4 with postgres support. The message is _very_ reproducible :-)

No, it should look up the domain in the postgres database, find the IP
of another machine and route the e-mail there. It is a single mail and a
single forward machine. The e-mail reaches its destination, it's just the
log message that confused me.

I'll send you the configuration file and some debug data off the list.
Please tell me if you need anything else.
