Hi, I'm starting to use exim to replace an outdated qmail installation, and it works fine up to now. I am handling multiple domains, and I thought I could choose this directory layout:
for mailboxes: /var/mailboxes/$domain/$local_part/{new,cur,tmp} for redirections: /var/mailboxes/$domain/$local_part (a regular file containing the redirections) In the routing section of the configuration file, I tried to separate these things apart using require_files: for redirections: require_files = !/var/mailboxes/$domain/$local_part/. for mailboxes: require_files = /var/mailboxes/$domain/$local_part/. This setup would ensure that no user can have both a mailbox and a redirection at the same. But when I looked at the exim source code, I figured out that exim tries to be too clever for me, and that it treats all errors except ENOENT as a fatal failure. (For redirections, the error is ENOTDIR.) Is there some clever way to keep my directory layout?
