[Exim] Newbie question regarding /etc/aliases and exim

Hi,

Sorry to ask this question but I can't see it as a FAQ.

I've got Exim 3.22 configured as follows:

primary_hostname = myserver.mydomain.co.uk
qualify_domain = mydomain.co.uk
qualify_recipient = mydomain.co.uk
local_domains = myserver.mydomain.co.uk
forbid_domain_literals
never_users = root
host_lookup = *
ignore_errmsg_errors_after = 2d
timeout_frozen_after = 7d

remote_smtp:
driver = smtp
local_delivery:
driver = appendfile
file = /var/mail/$local_part
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
address_pipe:
driver = pipe
return_output
address_file:
driver = appendfile
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
address_reply:
driver = autoreply

system_aliases:
driver = aliasfile
file = /etc/aliases
search_type = lsearch
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe

userforward:
driver = forwardfile
file = .forward
no_verify
no_expn
check_ancestor
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe
reply_transport = address_reply

localuser:
driver = localuser
transport = local_delivery

send_to_mailserver:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * mailserver.mydomain.co.uk bydns_a
host_find_failed = pass
fallback_hosts = mailserver2.mydomain.co.uk

send_to_lotus:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * mailserver3.mydomain.co.uk byname


In /etc/aliases in have aliases configured in what I think is a standard way:

maillist1:user1@???,user2@???,user3@???

Basically the config sends all e-mails to mailserver.mydomain.co.uk
All works well apart from when sending to the aliases in /etc/aliases

In the above example the alias maillist1 is not broken down into the 3 seperate
e-mail address above instead 3 e-mails
are sent to:

maillist1@???

I'm not wishing to use virtual domains or anything similar I just wish to use
the aliases as stated above.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

James
