I see what you are saying. There is no lowercase '@', it stays the same as
'@' but it builds the string in a sense that Exim might put it together in a
matter that Antony wanted. I was also thinking of putting the curly brackets
around the local_part and domain too:
data = ${lookup{${local_part}${lc:@}${domain}}lsearch{/etc/aliases}}
But as you said, he may just need to split the aliases or change the file
slightly to make it do what he wanted. I was just throwing idea's into the
wind...
Cheers, kibble.
