Re: [exim] verify = recipient, using virtual domains, rejec…

A comparison of the output with "-d -bt" and "-d -bv" seems to point to
the issue.

Everything is essentially the same until the first alias redirect router
is encountered. At the point where the "guts" of the alias redirect
router appears, namely the statement "data = <string to expand>", the
-bt execution expands the string as expected, whereas -bv does
absolutely nothing with it. More precisely:

With -bt, the line:
rda_interpret <the string to expand>
is followed by 15 lines detailing the expansion, ending with:
lookup yielded: <the desired result>
followed by
expanded: <the desired result>

With -bv, the line:
rda_interpret <the string to expand>
is immediately followed on the next line with
expanded: <nothing, zilch, nil, nada>
followed a few lines later by "router declined"

The remaining aliases routers all behave in exactly the same way. No
string expansions. Given that these string expansions are the essence of
the alias lookup process, I don't see how verification can work. Unless
I am missing a magic option that forces verify to actually perform the
requested search. (at least once)
