Another approach at solving the forwarding problem is using standard 551 code,
which eventualy (let's hope) every MTA will be able to interpret and act
accordingly without generating a bounce:
551: User not local; please try <foo(_at_)bar(_dot_)org>
There's a plugin for qpsmtpd (in their wiki) to activate this via ~/.redirect.
The next version of Exim (4.63) will have support for generating this code by
prepending the error message with "551 ".
For example, in /etc/aliases:
foo: :fail: 551 User not local; please try <foo(_at_)bar(_dot_)org>
Or, if you want to enable it via user dotfiles:
dot_redirect:
driver = redirect
check_local_user
require_files = $home/.redirect
verify_only
allow_fail
data = :fail: 551 User not local; please try
<${readfile{$home/.redirect}{}}>
condition = ${if !exists {$home/.forward}}
I've setup an "echo" redirection gateway for testing purposes. It's in
<echo(_at_)aybabtu(_dot_)com>. Feel free to give it a try.
