using virtual_aliases I maintain separate domains each with their own
aliases for users in that domain
maintain a file /etc/exim/domains/virtual_aliases merely a list of the
virutual domains
one
two
three
then each domain has an alias file
/etc/exim/domains/<domain.name>/aliases
jzaw: jzawone
bill: billone
freda: fredaone
jzaw: jzawtwo
terry: terrytwo
bill: billthree
freda: fredathree
so mail is delivered
jzaw@one => jzawone/Maildir
jzaw@two => jzawtwo/Maildir
mail delivered to ~/Maildir for each user
jzawthree in domain three does not exist so mail to jzaw@three gets
bounce/rejected/dropped whatever
but doesn't get delivered to any other Maildir and not to a local user
either cos there is no local user jzaw
