Subject: [exim] Firstname.lastname recognition
Hi,

I've migrated our mail server from exim 4.01 on RH 7.2 to exim 4.63 on FC6 and
found out that mails sent to `firstname.lastname@???' were rejected on
the new server but not on the old one. The configuration for exim is pretty much
the same.

Is exim responsible of the mapping `firstname.lastname' to `username'? Where
should I look for?

For info it is failing in the following router:

localuser:
driver = accept
check_local_user
transport = lmtp_delivery
cannot_route_message = Unknown user


Thanks for the help,
Manu
