Hi Odhiambo,
Thanks for the info. I am still understanding the
routers/transports issue of exim.
After some digging (thanks for vexim) I managed to
configure my local_delivery to perfom a lookup in my
mysql database and get the uid, gid and homedir to
make the drop.
Unfortunately it only works when the user exists in my
etc/passwd.
local_delivery:
driver = appendfile
directory = ${lookup mysql{select home from login
where login = '${local_part}'}}/Maildir
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
user = ${lookup mysql{select uid from login where
login = '${local_part}'}}
group = ${lookup mysql{select gid from login where
login = '${local_part}'}}
mode = 0660
maildir_format = true
create_directory = true
