Well I've looked at the source code. Looks like Exim does the following.

Assume a message has 2 recipients at the same domain. First of them *is
handled* by some router
that has a "same_domain_copy_routing" option set.

Exim "marks" processed address and then checks if there are more
recipients at this domain.
If they are then they will be routed with *the same* router as the first
recipient. In this case Exim
*never* returns to routers list (maybe "unseen" option could help - I
don't check).

Well it is not a bug - but someone *should be careful* with this option if
he tries to use a router with per-recipient condition...

Andrew, Bill - thanks again for help.


Vitas.
