Hi Drav,

Thanks for responding, but you appear to have ignored most of what I
wrote in my email, and missed the problem that I am describing entirely.

If you re-read my original email you will discover that I'm not saying
anything about the destination server being wrong at all - rather I'm
saying that Exim is rewriting the address incorrectly.

Regards,
Max.
