Many thanks - I managed to find that at
http://www.tty1.net/stuff/exim4.conf-vdomains2

Did I miss that somehow. It might make sense to have this generated in the
config and commented to avoid people struggling with this.

Last hurdle now is dealing with catchall addresses in our virtual domains.

i.e
Virtual file
me@???:    mypopbox
you@???:    yourpopbox
*@domains.com:    (blackhole or catchall popbox)


Any pointers?

Thanks
Gary

Because you don't have a router calling it, that's why.

You need:

dnslookup:
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains
transport = remote_smtp
ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0/8
no_more

Probably as your first router.
