Hi,

Hi has anyone setup an exim install that delivers mail onwards to
an MTA on the same host, but on a different port?


I have the following:

# ./bin/exim -bV
Exim version 4.66 #2 built 05-Feb-2007 14:15:55

And the router:

virus_checker_router:
driver = manualroute
transport = virus_checker_smtp
route_list = * $received_ip_address

With Transport:

virus_checker_smtp:
driver = smtp
port = 1234

(the idea of using $received_ip_address is that I can port the config
to multiple hosts)

However on SMTP convo:

C: rcpt to:<someuser@???>
S: 451 Temporary local problem - please try later

H=virus1.bis.ext (there) [192.168.207.54]:37873 I=[192.168.207.54]:44 F=<> temporarily rejected RCPT <someuser@???>: remote host address is the local host

Is there an option to stop Exim seeing this as a "routing issue"?
Or am I going to have to do something like make it a no_verify
router, and hope that when it comes to the actual routing it
doesn't complain?

I'll continure trawling the manual and google in the interim,

Cheers

Drav.
