The Exim code in Version 4 wasn't introduced until 4.10, so it is still
fairly new.<br>
I will pass this problem onto Nick, and I am sure he will have a fix out
very soon.<br><br>

<font face="arial" size=2>I have examined the spool files produced by
both version 3 and 4 of mailscanner and think that there may be a sight
bug which is preventing the rewriting of certain header fields. Version 3
which works, specifies after the header length of these fields a
character (F in the From: header, T in the To: header). Version 4 leaves
out these letters. The exim specification suggest that these letters
should be there and inserting them in files produced by version 4 and
forcing delivery gives me mail with the headers rewritten perfectly.

The flags at present contain only one bit, which is set for
<i>one_time</i> addresses. It indicates that <<i>parent number</i>>
is the offset in the recipients list of the original parent of the
address. The third number of the trio is for future expansion and is
currently always zero. A blank line separates the envelope and status
information from the headers which follow. A header may occupy several
lines of the file, and to save effort when reading it in, each header is
preceded by a number and an identifying character. The number is the
number of characters in the header, including any embedded newlines and
the terminating newline. The character is one of the following: <br>

<b>Subject:</b> Version 4, Exim and header rewrites<br><br>
<font face="arial" size=2>Hi,<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
e.g. <br>
<br>
<a href="mailto:r.a.gardener@shuexchangebox.shu.ac.uk">r.a.gardener@shuexchangebox.shu.ac.uk</a> becomes <a href="mailto:R.A.Gardener@shu.ac.uk">R.A.Gardener@shu.ac.uk</a><br>
<br>
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?)<br>
