Subject: [Exim] Problem with exim 4 and domainlist-expansion
Hi,

i have the following statements in my configure-file:

domainlist local_domains = @ : mysql;MYSQL_DOMAIN

Inside a router configuration i want to use the domainlist like this:

domains = +local_domains : *+local_domains

to match domains like xyz.com but also test.xyz.com.
The problem is, that exim doesn't expand *+local_domains.

The Exim docu says in chapter "10.6 Domain lists":

"If a pattern starts with an asterisk, the remaining characters of the
pattern are compared with the terminating characters of the domain. The
use of ``*'' in domain lists differs from its use in partial matching
lookups. In a domain list, the character following the asterisk need not
be a dot, whereas partial matching works only in terms of dot-separated
components. For example, a domain list item such as *key.ex matches
donkey.ex as well as cipher.key.ex."


Thanks in advandce,

Florian.
