Is your local_domains setting correct? How about your qualify_domain
and/or qualify_recipient settings? Exim only uses routers to determine
how to deal with non-local recipients. It knows a recipient is
non-local if the domain is not listed in local_domains.

So if exim is using a router to determine what to do with that mail (and
then speaking SMTP to itself, no less!), apparently you and exim don't
share the same idea of what a local recipient is.

Looking at the debian /etc/email-addresses rewriter, it looks like it
should only ever be used when transporting remote mail via smtp, so if
you have configured local_domains correctly, it should never try to
rewrite them in the first place.

Of course, I've been using exim v4 for quite some time now, so my memory
of how exim 3 works is a touch hazy. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

good times,
Vineet
