[I don't think this is the list we really want to be discussing this on. Might move it to -user soon, if that's OK]

This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > unknown local-part "viraja" in domain "unionb.com" > > "viraja" is another email address of my domain. What could be the > problem?I have attached mainlog and exim.conf as well. Does the user 'viraja' exist on the machine you've installed exim on? Is there an entry for 'viraja' in /etc/aliases that points to an account that doesn't exist? (I think that one gets an extra log message in exim, but it's been a while since I've encountered it). Are you running some distributed user information system (LDAP, NIS, SNUI) which may not have the user record available? Basically, the only circumstance in which you should receive this error is when the machine on which exim is running cannot get a name lookup for the username involved. You can check it by running 'id viraja' on the machine exim is installed on. - Matt
