Current situation:
We have a VPS that hosts a website example.org. Exim is configured to work as a smarthost. All emails sent through exim are successfully relayed to another mail server (that is working on example.com).
Goal:
To forward mail sent to *@example.org to *@example.com, i.e. change the recipient's address from *@example.org to *@example.com.
Problem:
If I send email to address *@example.org, then it seems exim doesn't change the address, it still relays the message to another mail server but recipient is still *@example.org. Maybe the
redirect is not applied for some reason.
Configuration and logs:
/etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf:
dc_eximconfig_configtype='smarthost'

driver =

domains = example.org
data =
[email protected]
(for now data is set to a specific address for simplicity and testing)
exim log when sending email to
[email protected] (should be redirected to
[email protected]):

So, the address is not changed :(
Please help! I'm trying to make it work for half a day already :(
