I have mail forwarding setup with exim using a domain forwarding file.
virtual_aliases_nostar:
driver = redirect
allow_defer
allow_fail
data = ${if exists{/etc/valiases/$domain}{${lookup{$local_part@$domain}lsearch{/etc/valiases/$domain}}}}
file_transport = address_file
group = mail
pipe_transport = virtual_address_pipe
retry_use_local_part
domains = lsearch;/etc/localdomains
unseen
It is working fine.
However, I would like to rewrite the "to" header. In my system filter, I would like to put something like:
headers remove to
headers add "To: $recipient:"
I've tried:
headers remove to
headers add "To: $recipient:"
headers remove to
headers add "To: $h_env-to:"
headers remove to
headers add "To: $env-to:"
The intent is to have the end recipient see their own email address in the To: line of their mail client.
I can't seem to figure out what the correct header is for the final destination of the email so that I can put it in the to header. I've read through the Exim docs and can't seem to find it. I've also looked in the headers in an email at a mail client and can't see it there either.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
