I tried using a .forward file contining:

Any thoughts? I'm using exim 4.69-9 in Lenny.
Yes, for :fail: to be allowed in ~/.forward one needs the
allow_fail=true option in the appropriate router, see
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch22.html#SECID130
The same can be achieved by putting
user: :fail:
in /etc/aliases, but I'm not sure if the option is needed or not in that
case too.
Placing
user: :fail:
in /etc/aliases worked without having to set the allow_fail=true option.
Thanks,
Ric
