Hi All,
I'm hoping to get some help with my Exim configuration. A couple of
months ago I implemented multiple virtual domains on my mail server,
with seperate alias and password files for each domain. It took me a
while but eventually I got it working (except for the catchall, I never
managed to have that going properly).
Anyhow, the problem is that the Exim filter files I had setup for
certain user accounts (using the ~/.forward file) stopped working. I
was hoping someone could have a quick look over my configuration and let
me know why Exim isn't looking for the user's forward file. As you will
see, I'm also running Amavis. The exim.conf file is getting quite big
and complicated for me to manage (being an inexperienced mail
administrator). If anyone else spots potential problems, feel free to
point them out.
I have tested the filter files using 'exim -bf', i'm pretty confident
that they are OK and that it's the configuration file that has the
problem.
I'm running Exim version 3.35 #1 built 04-Mar-2002 23:05:40 on Debian
Woody. My exim.conf is attached, minus most comments.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Lucas
