All bets are off. Exim 3 was replace by Exim 4 two and a half years ago
(an eternity on the net). Few people on this list can remember much
about Exim 3. I certainly can't. Everything I have said, and what others
have said, applies to Exim 4. (I don't have the time to relearn Exim 3,
either!)

Both Nigel's message and my previous message told you want to do. I
repeat: For Exim 4, add two those options to BOTH the userforward and
the localuser routers. For Exim 3, I can't remember. I think there was
something similar.
