The appendfile transport has a mbx_format option (see <http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_appendfile_transport.html> ) but only if Exim was compiled with SUPPORT_MBX set. You can find out if it has by running exim -bV. That'll give you something like: # exim -bV Exim version 4.xx #1 built xx-XXX-20XX xx:xx:xx Copyright (c) University of Cambridge 2006 Berkeley DB: Sleepycat Software: Berkeley DB 4.3.29: (May 26, 2010) Support for: crypteq iconv() IPv6 PAM Perl TCPwrappers OpenSSL Content_Scanning Old_Demime Lookups: lsearch wildlsearch nwildlsearch iplsearch cdb dbm dbmnz dnsdb dsearch ldap ldapdn ldapm mysql nis nis0 nisplus passwd pgsql sqlite Authenticators: cram_md5 cyrus_sasl plaintext spa Routers: accept dnslookup ipliteral manualroute queryprogram redirect Transports: appendfile/maildir/mailstore/mbx autoreply lmtp pipe smtp And mbx appears in the transports: section. Have a read of the appendfile transport section of the docs, that should tell you what you need to know. If not, please come back with any questions you may have.
