I've made the following router for the domain, domain.com with the
info@??? email box :
# Exchange route
exchange_mailboxes:
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp
domains = domain.com
local_parts = info
route_data = 123.123.123.123
no_verify
no_more
The info@??? box is on the Exchange server with IP adres
123.123.123.123
When I activate the above mentioned router all the e-mail is forwarded to
the exchange server.
Even if the e-mail for the POP3 boxes that are on the local server.
So the router works fine, and the exchange server does reply correct. I'm
getting 'user does not exists' error when I send an e-mail to an adres
that is not on the exchange.
The only problem is, the router doesn't check if the account exists on the
local server before forwarding it.
Because when it exists on the local server is doesn't have to be
forwarded, it has to be delivered to the POP3 box of that e-mail adres on
the local server.
Hope someone can help me with this problem.
It is no problem at all if I have to add the exchange e-mail adresses hard
coded to the exim.conf to be forwarded.
However, this is a problem when I have to do it for all the local adresses
(POP3).
