Autor: Andreas J Mueller Data: A: exim-users Assumpte: [Exim] Bug: Automatic re-routing of domains
Hello!
(I have replaced all @s with # below, to protect email addresses)
When doing an address verification test for abuse#dot.tk, I get the
following debug log from Exim 4.20:

======================================================================
Obviously, the dnslookup router first changes the domain from dot.tk
to DOT.TK, and subsequently skips the address, because it thinks it
has already routed it. The address is then processed by the local
routers and finally delivered to abuse@local_domain.
Proposed solution: Exim should ignore differences in the case of
letters when doing automatic domain re-routing. After all, domains
are routed case-insensitively.
