Subject: RE: [Exim] multiple domains - catchall - suggestions
Thanks for the reply, that was along the lines of what I was looking for, my
main concern is that to the public (and relay testers) that I will look like
an open relay, since I do answer for anything and then do the localpart
lookup?

Just throwing out suggestions, I appreciate that small snippet, I will start
to play with this. Thanks

would it suffice to do an address rewrite?

\N^(.*)@(.*)$\N $1@??? STt

that'll write any address to localpart@???

you could sub the $1@??? with something like

$1@${if eq{$2}{lsearch;/path/to/localdomains/file}{prupref.com} fail }

that is HIDEOUSLY wrong in syntax, just there to illustrate a point --
if the submitted domain is in the localdomains file, replace it with
prupref.com -- otherwise fail the whole damn thing and it'll get
rejected
