What I am having a problem with is that the server domain is (domain1.com) and I have an admin account (admin1) Well under that admin1 account I have another domain (domain2.com). When I send mail to [email protected] it automatically get forwarded to [email protected]

Is there any way that [email protected] gets put into the admin1 mail folder like it shows up in the email list of that domain?
 
Well a the bigger problem is is that when I send mail to [email protected] its not even getting to the admin1 mail folder. The email is returned unless of course I setup a mail forewarder under the domain1.com account. but of course I cannot send the email to the admin1 account because the address is invalid.
 
First you said it was getting delivered, and now you say it wasn't, so please forgive me for being confused.

As already pointed out, there's only one email box for each admin on the server; it's probably not reasonable to expect otherwise.

Does it not work when you set up a forward for [email protected] to [email protected]?

I'd think that would work.

You should probably run exim in diagnostic mode to see what exim is doing when it looks for the localpart and the domain name.

Unfortunately I don't have the time to duplicate an entire book chapter here; I do highly recommend the UITCambridge book on exim; it's a lot less expensive than an hour of a consultant's time.

I never said it was getting deliverd... I just said it was getting forewarded to the main domain of the server. But anyway... I was hoping to find someone else that might have had the same problem.

Hopefully someone will give me a solution but I will see if I cant figure out how to do the exim in safe mode debugging crap.
