BTW:

'klaus.americandad.hv.se'

- has more useful DNS records (at least includes an MX) than:

'americandad.hv.se'

Which returns 'no host found' for a 'host' command (from where I sit)

and 'no address associated with hostname' to a ping request.


- so it is odd that you even get an smtp connection, let alone 'unknown user'
when not using the 'klaus' prefix.

You need some DNS cleanup as well as Exim configure changes.

HTH,
