Subject: [exim] adding a route to exim to accept mail for local delivery
Hi All,
Apologies if some of this doesn't make sense as I am fairly new to exim configuration.
I have a WHM/cPanel box where I want me@??? to be caught by the exim server and handled locally the same as me@??? is - what the aim here is that I have setup a script which catches all non-specified email and will do something with it depending on subdomain and user etc.
the problem here is that while the message is definitely going to the right server I am getting a 451 response back telling me there will be a delay. email to me@??? works 100%.

I can't speficy all the subdomains as these are dynamic so I need a wildcard in here and I am not sure where or how to enter a route with a wildcard into the exim config.
Here is some detail from my exim - I am not entirely sure how to interpret most of it.

root@mysite [/var/log]# exim -bt blah@???
LOG: MAIN
remote host address is the local host: c.mysite.com (while routing <blah@???>)
blah@??? cannot be resolved at this time: remote host address is the local host

root@mysite [/var/log]# exim -bt blah@???
LOG: MAIN
lowest numbered MX record points to local host: c.mysite.com (while routing <blah@???>)
blah@??? cannot be resolved at this time: lowest numbered MX record points to local host

root@mysite [/var/log]# exim -bt blah@???
blah@??? -> |/home/pfirelda/ps/mailproc.php
transport = virtual_address_pipe

root@mysite [/var/log]# exim -d+route -bt blah@???
