Our domain is sun.ac.za
We relay email for a few other domains including prg.wcape.school.za.
A user with the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] complains that email
sent to her from outside does not reach her.
An example was an email she sent to herself from a yahoo account - at
test message CC'd to me.
When I opened the email, the headers looked like this:
==================

==============================
However in the mainlog on mail2.sun.ac.za I found this:
=================
2007-01-26 15:03:15 1HAQjX-0001xZ-UO <= [EMAIL PROTECTED]
H=web28014.mail.ukl.yahoo.com [217.146.182.119] P=smtp S=2902 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
2007-01-26 15:03:15 1HAQjX-0001xZ-UO => [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
R=relayrouter T=remote_smtp H=stbbh.stb.sun.ac.za [146.232.20.30]
2007-01-26 15:03:15 1HAQjX-0001xZ-UO Completed
2007-01-26 15:03:15 1HAQjX-0001xY-U0 <= [EMAIL PROTECTED]
H=web28014.mail.ukl.yahoo.com [217.146.182.119] P=smtp S=2901 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

2007-01-26 15:03:15 1HAQjX-0001xY-U0 Completed
=================
I then ran 'exim4 -d-all+acl+rewrite+route -bhc 217.146.182.119' using
"mail from: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" and "rcpt to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and the output showed that it would be
deliverd to prg.wcape.schoo.za as it is supposed to be.
Now my question. If the log shows that the message was addressed to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> while the "To:"-field
in the message showed [EMAIL PROTECTED], how could this
happen?
If it is a configuration error on our server, how can I determine where
what went wrong? Several -bh tests revealed nothing.
Regards
Johann
