Ok, this is the comment removed version of my current routers file :-
mysql_alias:
driver = redirect
data = ${lookup mysql{select alias from alias where
address='[EMAIL PROTECTED]'}}
allow_fail
allow_defer
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe
# bio maintained maillists to get round ITS exchange restriction.
mysql_maillist_alias:
driver = redirect
data = ${lookup mysql{select listmembers from
personel.maillists where listname='$local_part'}}
allow_fail
allow_defer
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe
#Route directly mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to
template.bio.warwick.ac.uk,
#Ignore MX !!!! 24/04/2002 PHS.
#this *IS* still required even though we have control of MX now, otherwise
#exim tries to relay bio mail to itself.....
# all mail for bio.warwick.ac.uk get sent to host at end....
# unless it has been sent elsewhere by the alias driver above.

This is for our departmental mailserver which is the primary mx for our
domain bio.warwick.ac.uk, this machine can also accept mail for local
delivery to protein.bio.warwick.ac.uk. Historically the internal
departmental mail was handled by our mercury email system running on
cell, but when most of our users where moved onto the campus email
system I implemented a mysql driven alias system to re-direct all of
their @bio mail->@warwick, these are the mysql based routers, the
send_to_cell would handle anyone that wanted to still use mercury,
however we now want to discontinue this.
What I would like to do is arrange so that any mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] would either be redirected by an alias in the
mysql table or thrown away, so ideally send_to_cell should be replaced
with something that drops any further @bio addresses on the floor.
However, I still need anything that is not @bio to be passed on to the
routers below e.g. sent_to_materhorn, _oikos and _globin etc.
Can this be done ?
Every time I have tried so far, whatever I have replaced send_to_cell
with has ended up with messages being defered with a message such as :-
2007-10-10 17:00:03 1Ifdyd-00066F-K1 <= [EMAIL PROTECTED]
H=jane.bio.warwick.ac.uk [137.205.155.235] P=esmtp S=832
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
2007-10-10 17:00:03 1Ifdyd-00066F-K1 lowest numbered MX record points to
local host: bio.warwick.ac.uk
2007-10-10 17:00:03 1Ifdyd-00066F-K1 == [EMAIL PROTECTED]
R=dnslookup defer (-1): lowest numbered MX record points to local host
2007-10-10 17:00:03 1Ifdyd-00066F-K1 Frozen
Cheers.
