Not trying to start an MTA flamewar, but since I don't know
anything about exim here's how I *think* you'd go about doing this
in Postfix:
1. In /etc/postfix/main.cf set
recipient_canonical_classes = envelope_recipient
recipient_canonical_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/recipient_canonical
2. Put the following in /etc/postfix/recipient_canonical
@realurl.org kevin at localdomain
3. Then use postmap to create recipient_canonical.db
What this will do is rewrite the SMTP envelope recipient from
whatever at realurl.org to kevin at localdomain (which must be a
deliverable address). The headers of the message will not be
touched, which may be useful for debugging purposes.
At least, I think that's what it does. As always, test it out
first before relying on it. :)
