Sander - Thanks for the suggestions and ideas. I tried with the space after
:fail: but it did not seem to make a difference.
When I tried the cannot_route_message in the below router, Exim no longer
logs a reason for why the message rejected and the bounce on the remote
server still says "unknown user".
In a router, is the message after :fail: only for logging purposes? If so,
the cannot_route_message should do the trick, right?
Could this simply be a problem with the remote mail server not reading the
errors properly? I will have to test this if I can get my hands on another
mail account.
Anyone else using user defined white and blacklists? If so, how are you
implementing them?
blacklist_domain:
driver = redirect
senders = ${lookup mysql{SQL_BLACKLIST_QUERY}{$value}}
allow_fail
cannot_route_message = $local_part@$domain has blacklisted all mail coming
from $sender_address_domain
data = :fail:
Thanks!
