Ok, I will try to explain more. The user in question doesn't have a forward-
file. I don't want it to have a forward file. Exim doesn't seem to find the
user. While the user can log in to KDE, it has a home-dir, it has a right
mailbox and the owners and groups are OK comparing to the other users.
with -d10 debug I get this message: (typing it over from the linux screen)

While for another user I get this log:

So somehow it can't open the home/boudewyn/ bit but I'm sure it exsist.
with ls -l I get the same results as with user daantje.

If I try with a http-request to the server I do get an error 403 page (access
forbidden) so the user does exists on the system.

Still can't figure it out. except for the uid 'boudewyn' and 'daantje' are
identical.
