Okay, I have an outgoing mail server, cortizone, which does mysql
lookups from a separate machine, codeine. I have this in the configure
file on cortizone
our_routes:
driver = manualroute
domains = +our_domains
host_find_failed = defer
route_data = codeine.yoafrica.com
same_domain_copy_routing
transport = remote_smtp
The our_domains is as simple as
domainlist our_domains = ${lookup mysql{ALL_DOMAINS}}
This works fantastically until the mysql server falls over. Then I get
these messages in /var/log/exim/paniclog
2005-05-04 16:06:35 1DTHjp-00077A-Es failed to expand "${lookup mysql{SELECT DISTINCT domain FROM relay_to_domains WHERE domain='${quote_mysql:$domain}'}}" while checking a list: lookup of "SELECT DISTINCT domain FROM relay_to_domains WHERE domain='bonbon.net'" gave DEFER: MYSQL connection failed: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'codeine.yoafrica.com' (61)
How do I set it up, so that if the mysql server is down, it does a DNS
lookup and ignores our_routes and our_domains?
