Ok, you need to detect that count(target) is greater than 1 for an address. > I thought, that one responder should only handle one type ( or two similar > types like imap/pop3 ) at once. And that's fine. The problem is that you want more than one router to handle a specific message. The way to do that is to detect in your conditions that you will need to handle more than one delivery for the same recipient, handle one of those multiple conditions, and then let the remaining condition be handled by your existing router. To paraphrase: forwarder: conditon = is set to forwarder? data = extract the email to forward to unseen = true if address has more than one match in database mailboxes: condition = is set to imap/pop? data = extract the maildir to deliver to > ATM, the sort order of the routers in the config file decides which one of > those i mentioned above work. > The first one wins. Correct. And then you use the "unseen" option to tell exim that it should continue processing routers even though the current one matched. http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch15.html Scroll down to "unseen", it's near the end. Totally untested, but you get the idea: # Global definition: DETECT_MULTIPLE=SELECT '1' FROM mail_config WHERE address = '${quote_mysql:${local_part}@${domain}}' and then in the first router where it might hit a duplicate: unseen = ${if >{${lookup mysql{DETECT_MULTIPLE}}} {1} {yes}{no}} Regards...
