As I looked at the end of exim.conf just now, I saw the following:

# This rewriting rule is particularly useful for dialup users who
# don't have their own domain, but could be useful for anyone.
# It looks up the real address of all local users in a file

*@hp.homelan.ch    ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
                                                {$value}fail} bcfrF

And /etc/email-addresses on my system now looks like this:

# This file contains email addresses to use for outgoing mail. Any local
# part not in here will be qualified by the system domain as normal.
#
# It should contain lines of the form:
#
#user: someone@isp.com
#otheruser: someoneelse@anotherisp.com
svn: svenb@bluewin.ch

So, I guess you might like to do it this way, too. :)

Thanks for getting me on the right way! This works perfectly here now.
Just what I needed!
Sven
