Dave,

Thanks so much for the help. Please excuse me as I'm still an Exim newbie.

Exim -bt test@??? returned:

lowest numbered MX record points to local host: test.neighborology2.com (while routing <test@???>)
test@??? cannot be resolved at this time: lowest numbered MX record points to local host

It should be routed to a local domain. Does that make sense?

No problem. Best to make sure your replies go to the exim-users list though,
so everyone here has the opportunity to help you.

And where should the local domain go? Mail has to end up somewhere; is it
meant to go to a local mbox file, or a local maildir maybe; or is it meant to
be sent via SMTP to another box?

It might be worth trying "exim -d+route -bt
test@???";
if you're not sure how to interpret the output, show us (the list) the
output
of that command, and we'll see what we can do.

Dave,

Thanks for your reply.

Ultimately, I would like all the emails to be piped to a script. That's part two of my question. =)

Here is the output from:

Sorry for the carelessness. "neighborology2.com" is the domain and it's correct everywhere.

That is spelt differently to this:

localdomains file, but Exim still gives an error message in exim_mainlog:

"neighborology" or "neighborology2" or
"neighborolgy2" ? Which is in
the localdomains file?

Hi,

Just trying to get my head around how to do dkim verification. When
doing the ${lookup dkim{}} are you supposed to use the domain from the
From: header? Ie, would this be sane:

deny set acl_m1  ${lookup dkim{${lc:${domain:$h_from:}}}}
      condition   ${if eq{$acl_m1}{bad}}
      message     ?ad DKIM signature

I'm not asking whether or not it is sane to block an email with a bad
signature, I'm asking whether or not that method of looking up the
validity of a signature is correct?

On the example at http://wiki.exim.org/DKIM it says to use "${lookup
dkim{domain.example}}" but doesn't explain what you're supposed to
replace domain.example with.
