Hi,
I am completely new to exim.
I want to filter the mail based on their subject and then forward it to
specific mail addresses.
For this i have written a .forward filter file like this
# Exim filter
if
$h_subject :matches " content "
then
deliver "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
endif
I am testing it on exim4 local system which is configured as Local Delivery
Only.If this is success then it will be ported to main production server.
But when the filter is introduced the local delivery itself fails in delivering
messages.
I tried to analize the log file which have given error as follows:
2008-02-25 22:20:03 1JTgWX-0002lv-LO == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=userforward defer
(-1): /home/t2/.forward is not a regular file

2008-02-25 22:51:27 1JTh0v-0000zm-Ns == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=userforward defer
(-1): bad owner for /home/t2/.forward
I am unable to understand defer error code like -1 and -51
Also what are the methods to debug such issues.
I have not made changes big in /etc/exim4/exim.config file
If anybody can help me or point me in proper direction it will be thankful.
I have checked archives but I couldnt find a soluton
