Wanting to divert sub-domain xyz.domain.com to a :blackhole: I first
tried in Rewrite to change the envelope address with
*@xyz.domain.com :blackhole: T
but Exim rejected that coding.
I tried again in Routers doing things like:
weg:
driver = redirect
data = xyz.domain.com
transport = :blackhole:
'Transport' is not allowed. The Exim 4.71 PDF fails to explain the
syntax. Google can't find anything illustrative.
I know I can delete the MX entry for xyz.domain.com and create lots of
bounces but I wanted to simply drop the expected deluge of emails to
that sub-domain.
Although I have found a workable substitute, shown below, does anyone
know how to divert an entire sub-domain to :blackhole: or /dev/null ?
--------------
REWRITE
*@xyz.domain.com delete@??? T
/etc/aliases
delete: :blackhole:
-------------
One of the resulting Exim log file lines is
> 2010-02-11 21:44:19 1Nfgpf-0008GP-K8 => :blackhole: <delete@???> R=system_aliases
I assume R= means Router and the 'system_aliases' is a predefined class
of routers. How does one set-up a 'system_aliases' router to deliver
sub-domain emails to :blackhole: ?
Regards,
Paul.
