Subject: [exim] why "no_verify" on userforward router?
Hi,

may I ask why the userforward router in the exim default configure
file has the "no_verify" option set? Ths prevents the use of ":fail:"
in a ~/.forward file (at least it causes accept-and-bounce behavior),
and I do not see any advantage here.

The only difference that comes to my mind is that an error in a
~/.forward file with no_verify causes the message to sit in the local
queue while it would not be accepted (and queued remotely) if
no_verify were unset.

I must be missing something here.

Greetings
Marc
