I am struggling getting exim to do what seems
to be a relatively simple task. I can't work out what I am missing.
I am setting up a mail server which services
a lot of domains but only a handful of users.
There are about 6 real accounts on one
domain.
Some of the other domains need
mail forwarding to one of these accounts.
I also want a default for any domains that do not
have a domain specific forward.
I don't really want a separate alias file for every
domain as that seems unnecessary in this configuration .
I have the following director in the
exim.conf:-
system_aliases:
driver = aliasfile file_transport = address_file pipe_transport = address_pipe file = /etc/aliases search_type = lsearch*@ include_domain I have an alias file that goes
like:-
fred@domain1
:fredbloggs
bert@domain1:
bertsmith
*:fredbloggs
However when I send mail to any user it always gets
sent to the default * . Eg bert@domain1 and nobody@domain2 both get delivered to
fredbloggs.
I expected it to only use * if it could not find a
find a more precise match. Instead * seems to override all other
aliases.
I have had a good look through mailing lists but I
can't find anyone who has had a similar problem.
