We have been running happily Exim version 2.12 (we know it is old, but
it works)
I do the following in the 2.12 version:
$ exim -bt tigeri
Address rewritten as: tigeri@???
tigeri@???
deliver to tigeri@???
router = route_internal_bydns, transport = internal_smtp
host ncs-maila.wmin.ac.uk [161.74.160.176] MX=3
host ncs-mailb.wmin.ac.uk [161.74.160.177] MX=3
I have made very little modification of the Exim config file for
version 4.12, but when I do the same on 4.12 I get:
exim@garuda> exim -bt tigeri
LOG: address_rewrite MAIN
"tigeri@???" rewritten as
"tigeri@???" by rule 3
LOG: address_rewrite MAIN
"tigeri@???" rewritten as
"tigeri@???" by rule 8
LOG: address_rewrite MAIN
"tigeri@???" rewritten as "tigeri@???"
by rule 41
Address rewritten as: tigeri@???
tigeri@???
router = route_internal_bydns, transport = internal_smtp
host intranet.wmin.ac.uk [161.74.55.209]
It looks as though it is not going to the right place - no mention of
MX records etc.
Another example is in the old one:
$ exim -bt xxx@???
xxx@???
deliver to xxx@???
router = route_internal_bydns, transport = internal_smtp
host psi1.psi.org.uk [161.74.20.224] MX=3
However in the new one:
exim@garuda> exim -bt xxx@???
xxx@??? cannot be resolved at this time:
lookup of host "psi.org.uk" failed in route_internal_bydns router
exim@garuda>
In Exim 4.12 route_internal_bydns is as follows:
route_internal_bydns:
driver = manualroute
domains = ! +local_domains
route_list = *.wmin.ac.uk $domain bydns ; \
*.westminster.ac.uk $domain bydns ; \
psi.org.uk $domain bydns
self = reroute: mtahost.wmin.ac.uk
transport = internal_smtp
# To deal with "root@jaguar" where MX record points to us
Is there something in 2.xx that does not work in 4.xx any more as far
as this kind of routing is concerned?
Many thanks
