I don't know what this means....  Specifically, can you describe (or
point me to docs) about what the difference is between a "main
account" and an account "under" a "main account"?

Sorry.. it's a bit odd. On a cPanel server, there is a generally one unix account (with a username and passwd entry, etc) for each hosted domain (excepting special cases like having a second domain point to the account). Its mail is delivered to /home/<username>/mail/inbox. This I call a "main account".


When the domain owner sets up new email addresses in cPanel, new unix users are not created. Their mail gets delivered to /home/<username>/mail/<domain>/<account name>/inbox. You'll see in the Exim transport below that it figures out where to deliver by checking a file that associates domains and user names.

I have no idea of the cause of this.  Some MTAs capture the standard
output of the program and write that to the log.  Does Exim do this,
or can it be configured to do this?

What I provided was what Exim captured... I've tried adding >/var/log/test to the command line, but that file doesn't get written; the command returns a 1 instead of a 75; and mail delivery fails. (When tmda-filter returns a 75, Exim freezes the message instead of failing it.)


 Could you post your transport definition as well as
any other Exim configuration that might affect the tmda-filter
invocation?

Here is my transport... I didn't expect this to work, but I expected it to produce enough information to figure out what to add to make it work. If there's any other info anyone wants to see, let me know:


tmda_virtual_pipe:
  driver = pipe
  command = /usr/bin/python2 /usr/local/tmda/bin/tmda-filter
  return_path_add
  delivery_date_add
  envelope_to_add
  user = "${lookup{$domain}lsearch* {/etc/userdomains}{$value}}"
  group = mail
  environment = EXTENSION=${substr_1:$local_part_suffix}:\
                [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Have you done a "find / -name TMDA_DELIVERY_FAILURE" to search your
entire system?

Returns nothing :-(
