Thank you Ian, Just to be sure, in my logs below [email protected] is the actual vacation mailbox. Any emails sent to that address should send a vacation mail. My tests below was:
1. Send a mail directly to [email protected] from [email protected] via Outlook. 2. Send a mail to [email protected] from [email protected] via Outlook which in return will forward my mail to [email protected]. In both logs below only [email protected] is shown as intended (as we want the mail to "originate" from my mailbox and not the forward account). Point 1 works perfectly, point 2 does deliver the mail to the [email protected] mailbox (the vacation mailbox) but simply does not send trigger the vacation mail router. I cannot show you the forward config as that is setup via cPanel. The actual testmail account is setup on a cPanel server so not entirely sure how to extract that config but can confirm it's working. Thank you again for your willingness to help 😊 Mauritz -----Original Message----- From: Exim-users <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Ian Zimmerman via Exim-users Sent: Saturday, October 27, 2018 5:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [exim] Vacation mail does not work if mail is forwarded to mailbox On 2018-10-26 15:37, Mauritz Swanepoel via Exim-users wrote: > # LOGS FROM EXIM WHERE THE MAIL WAS FORWARDED TO THE VACATION MAILBOX > (BUT FROM SAME ACCOUNT) > > 2018-10-26 15:27:41 1gG29N-0007ZG-1F DKIM: d=*** s=default > c=relaxed/relaxed > a=rsa-sha256 b=2048 [verification succeeded] > > 2018-10-26 15:27:41 1gG29N-0007ZG-1F <= [email protected] > H=mx12-out3.my.com [***] P=esmtps > X=TLSv1.2:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:256 > CV=no K S=68355 id=008f01d46d2f$a6a48f80$f3edae80$@*** > > 2018-10-26 15:27:41 1gG29N-0007ZG-1F => testmail > <[email protected]> R=localuser T=local_delivery > > 2018-10-26 15:27:41 1gG29N-0007ZG-1F Completed Unless I'm badly mistaken, this shows the mail has not been forwarded to the "vacation" account at all, but delivered to "testmail". IOW the forwarding part of your configuration (which you have not shown) is to blame for not reaching the expected result. -- Please don't Cc: me privately on mailing lists and Usenet, if you also post the followup to the list or newsgroup.
