--- Comment #4 from Graeme Vetterlein <graeme.exim4@???> ---
Jeremy I suspect you may be onto something. Looks like I made some edits there
in 2014 (GPV is my mark)
AFYI: I use addresses like graeme.bugzilla@??? and
graeme.foobar@???. These should
end up in "graeme" mailbox

2 ### router/600_exim4-config_userforward
3 #################################
4
5 # This router handles forwarding using traditional .forward files in
users'
6 # home directories. It also allows mail filtering with a forward file
7 # starting with the string "# Exim filter" or "# Sieve filter".
8 #
9 # The no_verify setting means that this router is skipped when Exim is
10 # verifying addresses. Similarly, no_expn means that this router is
skipped if
11 # Exim is processing an EXPN command.
12 #
13 # The check_ancestor option means that if the forward file generates an
14 # address that is an ancestor of the current one, the current one gets
15 # passed on instead. This covers the case where A is aliased to B and B
16 # has a .forward file pointing to A.
17 #
18 # The four transports specified at the end are those that are used when
19 # forwarding generates a direct delivery to a directory, or a file, or
to a
20 # pipe, or sets up an auto-reply, respectively.
21 #
22 #
23 # GPV 2.Jan14 - After a full day of study decided this would work:
24 #
25 # Addresses like graeme.somthing@??? should end up in local
delivery to 'graeme'
26 # because domains have been stripped (we are at local delivery stage)
and we now say the ".something"
27 # is an option suffix, so if it's there it gets elided, otherwise we
are happy to work with it not there.
28 #
29 # NB see example in docs: 49.8 Multiple user mailboxes NB needs to be
in both :
30 # 600_exim4-config_userforward
31 # 900_exim4-config_local_user
32 #
33 # As we might use the same trick with or without a .forward file

56 This is an automatically generated message. An error has\n\
57 been found in your .forward file. Details of the error are\n\
58 reported below. While this error persists, you will receive\n\
59 a copy of this message for every message that is addressed\n\
60 to you. If your .forward file is a filter file, or if it is\n\
61 a non-filter file containing no valid forwarding addresses,\n\
62 a copy of each incoming message will be put in your normal\n\
63 mailbox. If a non-filter file contains at least one valid\n\
64 forwarding address, forwarding to the valid addresses will\n\
65 happen, and those will be the only deliveries that occur.
