Unfortunately, I'm not 100% resolved. Thanks for the help, though!!!

OK, I did those.

OK, now comes the problems.... I can get the rewrite rules to work correctly, but I can't have them only apply to a certain route/transport/etc... I guess this is kind of a triviality, but the upshoot is that all local mail is rewritten. (I would prefer the From field stay intact as to know which machine that cron message came from.) Is there a way to keep rewrites from happening on certain routes or transports? I saw an option for directors but since they only apply to local mail I don't think it will help me. > Depends how fetchmail is set up I guess.<snip> I'm miscommunicating. I can get fetchmail to bring the mail to localhost:25. Its getting exim to move it correctly that I can't do. I guess it is possible that I can't move mail coming into localhost:25 with a header match on [EMAIL PROTECTED] off to Rankor, in which case I have to rethink my strategy. =( > then you would use in a .forward file: <snip> Here's my issue. If I have a forward file, exim still needs to be able to route the mail to the host listed in the forward file. So presumably, I need another router command than the smarthost. As long as I am setting up a non-smarthost route, I should be able to move all incoming mail through that route, and outgoing mail to that route if it matches a [EMAIL PROTECTED] type pattern.... What I setup and doesn't work is: rankor_route: driver = domainlist #local_smtp just specifies smtp as the driver transport = local_smtp route_list = "[EMAIL PROTECTED] rankor.JJLNet byname;\ [EMAIL PROTECTED] rankor.JJLNet byname" The fact is, I am bumbling around with this router stuff and am probably doing this just plain wrong. Its possible I want to treat Rankor as part of the local domains and not route it at all, but then I don't know how I would get the mail from Sith:25 to Rankor:25. If there is a director that would do this for me, I'm in. I just don't know what that would be. TIA! -Jonathan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
