Onderwerp: [exim] router for bounce messages
Hi,

I've set up 2 exim machines to check bounces:

a - machine which sends message to deny@b
b - ACL configuration for "deny localpart = deny"

Now I send message (exim -bS)
EHLO foo
MAIL FROM: <a@a>
RCPT TO: <deny@b>

exim tries to send stuff to b as expected. And machine b denies which triggers bounce-generation at machine a.

I have a router (and ACLs allow this bounce):

bounce_route:
    senders = : # as told in manuals


So it should capture bounce-messages for this router. However this is log from exim -d+all-exec..

--------> bounce_route router <--------
local_part=deny domain=b
checking senders
---0 Get 134994592    40       string.c  346
address match: subject=1@a pattern=
---0 Get 134994632    32       string.c  384
---0 Get 134994664    32       string.c  346
a in ""? no (end of list)
1@a in ":"? no (end of list)
---0 Get 134994696    48       string.c  346
bounce_route router skipped: senders mismatch
--------


Does this prove that "senders" string is not empty as I've expected? It is "1@a".

How I capture these bounces generated by machine a to a specific router?

Sorry about using old version of exim which is 4.10 if this was a known bug/feature which has been corrected in newer versions..
