The exim specs supply:
"Trusted users are permitted to use the -f option or a leading 'From '
line to specify the envelope sender of a message that is passed to Exim
through the local interface (see the -bm and -f options below)."
Would this mean that if I'm not defined as a
trusted user my ~/.forward file containg the lines:
if $h_to contains debian-user or $h_cc contains debian-user; then
save muttmail/debian/user
elif $h_to contains exim-user or $h_cc contains exim-user; then
save muttmail/exim/user
else
save muttmail/other/inbox
endif
...would not work?
Then continuing in the specs:
"They may also specify a host name, host address, interface address,
protocol name,
and ident value. Thus they are able to insert messages into Exim's queue
locally that have the characteristics of messages received from a remote
host"
Does this say trusted users may alter the message header (envelopes)
or does this refer to the -oem option you have used?
The -oMr option in your command is not clear to me:
"... The option is
intended for use when handing to Exim messages received by other
means.
It applies only to non-SMTP and batched SMTP input.
"
- What does this mean?
