So, i just read my post and i think i ignored the "first read - then post"
rule... Sorry for that.

I try to run both systems parallel for a while, so i can test the new
system. So mails still arive at the old system and are delivered to the
local maildirs. In addition to that i want the old system to forward each
mail to the new system by smtp, so i can check filter rules etc. on the new
system. But, if the new system is down or gives a permanent error response,
i dont want the old system to generate a bounce - so i need a flag or
something that says "try this but dont generate bounces/error messages"

So, this time i read the text before posting :)

Hi List,

we're testing our new exim environment, and i want to forward all mails to
the new environment. I currently do this with the manualroute router and the
unseen flag. The problem is, that if an account does not already exist on
the new system, a bounce is generated although the mail was processed
correctly on the old system. I'd need some flag in the router like
"fail_dont_care".
