Ok. I did something like that here. +internal_domains for now contains
only 'localhost'.
virtual:
driver = redirect
allow_fail
allow_defer
domains = dsearch;/usr/local/etc/exim/virtual
data =
${lookup{$local_part}lsearch*{/usr/local/etc/exim/virtual/$domain}}
user = mailnull
group = mail
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe
system_aliases:
driver = redirect
allow_fail
allow_defer
domains = +internal_domains
data = ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch*{/usr/local/etc/exim/aliases}}
user = mailnull
group = mail
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe
In the file aliases I have 'root: bkhl@???', and in
virtual/elektrubadur.se, I redirect bkhl to the uni account where I
really read my mail.
Now this works fine if I run 'exim -bt -d root'. It rewrites stuff like
this:
bkhl@???
<-- bkhl@???
<-- root@localhost
However, if I do 'echo test|mail -s test root', or
'echo test|mail -s test root@localhost', it goes to the user
sten@???.
This makes a bit of sense, since thaning.se is the canonical hostname of
the server ($HOST). I would think that 'primary_hostname = localhost'
would take care of that, but it doesn't.
How should I go about fixing that last kink?
