That transport is exactly the same what i'm using. Probably copied from
the same source ;)

I didn't analyze your configuration in detail, but perhaps it may be
useful to have a look at the routers i'm using for a similar task:
deliver mails to local and several virtual domains including forwarding
and alternate addresses. The ldap schemas are GOsa out-of-the-box ones. I
don't claim that my setup is the ultimate exim4-gosa-solution, but it
works. That's all ;)

P.S. I noticed that you have posted a similar question on the GOsa
mailinglist. I was in doubt whether to answer here or there.

a non-filter file containing no valid forwarding addresses,\n\

happen, and those will be the only deliveries that occur.
