Hello list,
Exim 4.12 is running fine here with SA, mysql-lookups and ASMTP authentification. I only have a little problem with unknown users, where I don't have an idea to search for the mistake in my configuration. Maybe it's a fault in the way I'm thinking of the problem - because this is my first 4.x setup.
So, let me describe:
When a non-local user sends mail to a non-existing user on the system he get's an error in return:
unknownuser@???
SMTP error from remote mailer after RCPT TO:<unknownuser@???>:
host naiad.hembrock.de [217.160.175.19]: 550 unknown user
When the same ist done by an authentificated local user, exim breaks the connection and the mail client thinks it was not able to deliver the mail (and keeps it in the outbox):
Client-Log:

config (excerpt from ACL):
accept domains = +local_domains : +local_domains_extramx
endpass
message = unknown user
verify = recipient
accept domains = +relay_to_domains
endpass
message = unrouteable address
verify = recipient
The relay_to_domains-list is empty.
It's no problem with the mail client, others show the same behaviour.
Why gets the client "unknown user", but the exim-log shows "unroutable address"? Where to look?
Thank's in advance.
Hartmut.
