Hello,

I'm new to Exim and having trouble configuring Exim 4.10. My final purpose
is to configure Exim with mysql to support virtual users and domains as
well as regular users. Messages will be inserted into mysql table. Virtual
hosts and users will be checked from mysql tables. Perl script
saveemail.pl suppose to do above jobs.

I would like to send incoming message to the script through the pipe.
The way I'm doing is I'm sending whole message with message headers and
body to the saveemail.pl script as a command line argument. I'm not quite
sure whether it is right way or not. If you have an idea or you know
better way of doing this please let me know.

That's my big fault. Actual modification was first made by my co-worker
and I didn't notice it.

I tried to use above but it said no such driver redirect0.

So it means that if I want to handle all messages I should put 'all' in
first place, is that right?

Can you recommend me better way of doing this?
