Subject: Re: [exim] README.UPDATING typo?
Apologies for my stupidity but I cannot see how this change affects me but
it does

I have two users who are active and afer I built 4.94 one of them got mail
as usuual (user jpff) but the other had mail deferred

2020-06-02 18:06:09 1jgAMV-0001uS-F7 <=
mail.rmqfdelalpjhcevwhvfeckzh@???
H=mail75-52.int1.msgfocus.com [185.54.75.52] P=esmtp S=50581
id=qtvh-7HoW0nDNZ-8MW4-1XAP9cHi1UoEOgoYP4N@???
2020-06-02 18:06:10 1jgAMV-0001uS-F7 == aff@??? R=localuser
T=local_delivery defer (-1): Tainted '/home/aff/mbox' (file or directory
name for local_delivery transport) not permitted


Why should /home/aff/mbox be different from /home/jpff/mbox? It was
working with 4.93.0.3. I have no use of $local_user apart from calls to
check_local_user.


I have backed off for now but I am very confused
