Well, at least my exim setup using eximconfig made this to the end of
/etc/exim.conf
# There are no rewriting specifications in this default configuration file.
#
# This rewriting rule is particularly useful for dialup users who
# don't have their own domain, but could be useful for anyone.
# It looks up the real address of all local users in a file
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
{$value}fail} bcfrF
I have added
eplehton: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
to my /etc/email-addresses and exim seems to change [EMAIL PROTECTED]
correctlyto my real address.
