Subject: [exim] Exim receiving for one domain, but not for another
Hello all,

I am setting up a server that will accept incoming emails for several
different domains. I don't use any local delivery, but everything is
forwarded to a users preferred personal address. I followed this article:
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/140 as well as my own
knowledge from setting up other systems.

Right now I am testing with two domains, both of which have their MX
records point to this server, cemetek.com and davidcstevens.com. Right now
when I send mail to will@??? it is forwarded as I would expect. But
when I send it to will@??? it is never delivered.

Now for the interesting part:
Output of exim -bt for both users:
R: system_aliases for will@???
R: dnslookup for undertakingyou@???
undertakingyou@???
    <-- will@???
  router = dnslookup, transport = remote_smtp
  .... <dns stuff for google>
R: system_aliases for will@???
R: dnslookup for undertakingyou@???
undertakingyou@???
    <-- will@???
  router = dnslookup, transport = remote_smtp
  .... <dns stuff for google>


Exim knows where to send this email.
A look at /var/log/exim4/mainlog, two entries, one for each email:

It seems that exim, in the mainlog, is saying that it sent both emails, but
I only get the one. I have checked my spam folder, and local delivery.
Nothing. Any thoughts on what might cause this?
