- Hello,
-
- can someone please give me a hint where I can find the rules for address
- rewriting (for MX of course).
-
- I have no problems to rewrite simple adresses, but now I have a rather
- complicated one. Our VAX routes all mail to a SUN. Problems arises, when
- I send some mail to *.uucp. The SUN tries to transfer the mail with uucp
- (nothing is set up for that purpose), rather than sending it via our
- ISDN link to the EUnet mail server. I know, we should fix it in the SUN
- routing, but didn't succeed until know.
-
- I thought I could fix it with a rewrite rule in MX.
-
- Address: hamcall.ampr.org!hamcall@uucphost.uucp (strange!)
- It works, when I send to:
- hamcall.ampr.org!hamcall%uucphost.uucp@germany.eu.net
-
- How can I deal with this situation? Is there a multitoken variable, like
- {everything@uucphost.uucp}->{everything%uucphost.uucp@germany.eu.net},
- because I never know the number of tokens of the first part...
-
- Hans.
