Description Tim Landscheidt 2014-03-27 03:50:34 UTC
| scfc@tools-mail:~$ sudo exim -v -M 1WOCCI-0002sK-7X
| delivering 1WOCCI-0002sK-7X
| LOG: MAIN
|   == root@tools.wmflabs.org R=user_forward defer (-17): error in redirect data: missing or malformed local part (expected word or "<") in "No such object (32)"
| scfc@tools-mail:~$ localuser root
| No such object (32)
| Matched DN: ou=people,dc=wikimedia,dc=org

| scfc@tools-mail:~$

I added "root: tools.admin" to /etc/aliases and ran newaliases (old sendmail habit, with exim a no-op), but the error remains as apparently user_forward takes precedence over /etc/aliases, so this forward probably needs to be integrated in modules/toollabs/templates/exim4.conf.erb.
Comment 1 Tim Landscheidt 2014-03-27 03:53:31 UTC
(Of course we could also work around that in localuser ... but where's the fun in that? :-))

Comment 3 Tim Landscheidt 2014-03-27 14:36:39 UTC
On second thought, I'm fine with fixing this is in localuser.  I tested the patch live on tools-mail.
Comment 4 Marc A. Pelletier 2014-03-27 14:43:53 UTC
Yeah, I'm on it with a better solution atm.  :-)
