Subject: Re: [exim] Message delivery when home directory does not exist
For now I have changed the router as follows and this seems to work ok:-

localuser:
driver = accept
check_local_user
local_part_suffix = +*
local_part_suffix_optional
transport = dovecot_delivery
transport_home_directory = /tmp
cannot_route_message = Unknown user

# stat /home/NEWCOL/s12345
stat: cannot stat `/home/NEWCOL/s12345': No such file or directory
# exim -v -odf s12345
Test.
.
