  >Try testing the exim re-writing rules with the following:

  >exim -C <path to config file> -brw EMAILADDRESS


  I tested using this method  last week, the rewrite rules are OK and are the same that have worked successfully since Feb 2002 and happily with version 3 of Mailscanner. 



  >and see how exim would rewrite EMAILADDRESS.

  >I think you would only need to set up the re-writing in your outgoing exim config, but I'm not sure.

    Hi,

    I upgraded from version 3 to version 4 of Mailscanner last week and found that the header rewrites configured in my Exim 3.36 configuration no longed worked. Briefly we rewrite all internal addresses with an external form before passing the mail to the outside world.

    e.g. 

    r.a.gardener at shuexchangebox.shu.ac.uk becomes R.A.Gardener at shu.ac.uk

    This rewrite stopped after upgrading to version 4. Upon just downgrading the installation to version 3 of Mailscanner the rewriting restarted.  Has anyone else seen this? (and of course, is there a fix?)
