Subject: [exim] Sympa and aliasfile?
I have been asked to set up a Exim/Sympa server, but for political reasons,
they do not want custom routers/transports, but rather to utilize the sympa
generated, sendmail-style alias file.

Can it be utilized within exim in an easy way? (In all cases, the effective
user should be "sympa:sympa"?

The sympa aliasmanager creates a list as below with entries for all lists.

## This aliases file is dedicated to Sympa Mailing List Manager
## You should edit your sendmail.mc or sendmail.cf file to declare it
