Re: Exim Config.
I have more or less bottomed this out. So I thought I'd reply (to myself) in
case anyone else has similar problems.
I don't fully understand what seems to be going but heres how I got it
going.
The address data in the alias file (e.g. bertsmith) is unqualified with a
host name. Exim therefore qualifies it with the value of "qualify_domain" or
uses the primary hostname. It then does another search through the alias
file for the qualified address. because it does not find a match (in my
example) so it uses the default (*).
I fixed it by making sure that the qualify_domain entry in exim.conf does
not have a default in the aliasfile (*@). I also cannot have a global
default because that will be used if it exists. I have a domain default for
each of the domains that use this server except the one I use for
qualify_domain where I have specific aliases for "Postmaster" and
"webmaster".
There must be a better way of doing this. I would be grateful if anyone can
tell me what it is.
