Hi,
My problem is that email forwarded by exim from root to my private email address still shows "To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" in its address header, instead of To: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" in its To: header. Because of this, some of my emails do not get delivered.
How can I configure exim4 to make it work like that?
I am successfully using gmail as an smtp smarthost, as per the instructions found here: http://wiki.debian.org/GmailAndExim4
I want all emails to root forwarded to my email address, and this works only partially at the moment.
My /etc/aliases contains the following entry:
root: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
My /etc/mailname contains:
localhost
This test mail: echo "my test" | mail -s "test message" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Results in the following message: (domain names changed)
<...>
Received: from localhost ( [62.78.229.194])
by mx.domain.com with ESMTP id l22sm36093nfc.2006.02.27.06.46.12;

for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Mon, 27 Feb 2006 16:46:10 +0200
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: test message
Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
<...>
If I send email like this:
echo "my test" | mail -s "test message" root
The message does in fact arrive at the destination, but looks like the following (and triggers spam filters)
<...>
Received: from localhost ( [62.78.229.194])

Thanks for any help.
