Hi,
I've just upgraded to exim 4 from exim 3 and have run into
a number of
issues that are causing a very late night and a plan for a
long day so
any and all help gratefully received
The config file is below. This is a virtualhosting
arrangement with a
couple of hundred domains.
Each domain has it's own directories under /monza/clients/
{domains}
including an etc/passwd and an etc/aliases file that are
controlled
by the client and there is a /etc/exim/local_domains.dat
that we control
which is used to determine which domains are local.
What's not working:
1. Previously (exim3) we used to have aliases that allowed
the
following:
*: default@???
This I guess is an ordering issue with the router but I
couldn't
get the right combination. Clients like it even if I
think that
they get more spam because of it
2. Forwards work fine but autoreply doesn't and I can't
see how to
include a .autoreply file if it exists
3. Local users deliver fine but unknown local users just
end up
with the following log messages instead of being
rejected
2003-09-14 15:31:32 19yfP2-0004iM-FR <=
user@??? U=root P=local S=310 T="lost in
space"
2003-09-14 15:31:32 19yfP2-0004iM-FR Failed to find
user "" from expanded string
"${extract{2}{:}{${lookup{$local_part}lsearch
{/monza/clients/${domain}/etc/passwd}{$value}{mail}}}}"
for the userforward router
2003-09-14 15:31:32 19yfP2-0004iM-FR == xxx@???
R=userforward defer (-1):
Failed to find user "" from expanded string
"${extract{2}{:}{${lookup{$local_part}lsearch
{/monza/clients/${domain}/etc/passwd}{$value}{mail}}}}"
for the userforward router
which implies it failed on the forward and never got
around to
being discarded
Any and all help gratefully received - I've lost the faith
after
an afternoon trying to get it to work
Thanks
