Wildcards in Aliases

I found this as well:

Yes. Create a redirect router (in exim4.conf) with something like the
following fields :
domains = +local_domains
condition = ${if match {$local_part} {\Ndavid.*\N} {1}{0}}
data = dcorbin
 
You would have to create the router, and of course you'd then be responsible for maintaining your exim.conf file as the DA masters won't include your custom changes.

This seems like a fairly easy to implement feature that many DA users could find useful. Think the DA staff would add it in?
 
I'm happy to add it to the exim.conf file I maintain, but before I do please test it for me and see if you run into any issues.

Then let us know with a post to this thread.
