Temat: [exim] Unexpected behavior with Bcc to myself (or any local address?)
Hello,

for some messages, I include my own address in the envelope recipients.
This works OK in that the message is delivered to all recipients. What
bothers me is that the delivery seems to happen sequentially in the same
process, and in particular the general remote delivery (set up by a
manualroute router) happens only after the local delivery (by redirect
via a user .forward file) is finished. I know that it is so from the
logs, because the local delivery intentionally waits for a relatively
large delay (minutes).

I expected the remote deliveries to happen in parallel in a separate
process. Maybe there is a config flag to achieve this?

This is no big deal, at worst I can make the local delay conditional
depending on $sender_address. I'm just trying to fix what was clearly
my misunderstanding of how exim works in this area.
