Don't think exim will forward mail for you. But look in /etc/email-addresses and ~/.forward. Exim accepts mail, and optionally runs stuff like procmail, which optionally runs spamassassin. Exim then puts mail in /var/spool/mail/$user. It *will* forward mail with .forward (now that I think about it; I just wasn't sure if it was exim that did that).
/etc/email-addresses is all comments. There is nothing in /etc/aliases. There are no .forward files in anyone's home directory. Yet:
rockenfield:/etc/exim4/conf.d# exim4 -bt miked@bogusdomain.org
R: system_aliases for miked@bogusdomain.org
R: hub_user for miked@bogusdomain.org
miked@bogusdomain.com
<-- miked@bogusdomain.org
router = smarthost, transport = remote_smtp
host smtp.bogusisp.com [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
So miked@bogusdomain.org is forwarding to miked@bogusdomain.com and I'd
like to store it locally.
