I did:
kill -HUP 23127 ;)
/usr/local/exim/exim -bh 127.0.0.1 -d+rewrite

and got at RCPT time:
rcpt to: <ddts@tmn_00.telchoi.alcatel.be>
SMTP<< rcpt to: <ddts@tmn_00.telchoi.alcatel.be>
LOG: smtp_syntax_error MAIN
SMTP syntax error in "rcpt to: <ddts@tmn_00.telchoi.alcatel.be>"
H=localhost [127.0.0.1] malformed address: _00.telchoi.alcatel.be> may
not follow <ddts@tmn
SMTP>> 501 <ddts@tmn_00.telchoi.alcatel.be>: malformed address:

_00.telchoi.alcatel.be> may not follow <ddts@tmn
501 <ddts@tmn_00.telchoi.alcatel.be>: malformed address:
_00.telchoi.alcatel.be> may not follow <ddts@tmn

So nothing more than the former logs :(

It's obvious my real rewrite rule is:
\N^(.*)@tmn_00.telchoi.alcatel.be$\N    $1@???     ST


Sorry for former address obfuscation.
