Bug#408467: exim4-config: exim4 'virtual domains' config fits neatly in without interfering with config: please add!

[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.24-3
Severity: wishlist


	http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/140

it works perfectly: it requires one file to be added
router/350_something

and one small change to the default listmacrodefs:

domainlist local_domains = @:localhost:dsearch;/etc/exim4/virtual

that needs modifying...

and then the subdirectory /etc/exim4/virtual created

and then exim4 actually becomes _useful_ as a multi-domain-handling
service!

i've been looking for this for _four years_ for exim, and you _have_
to add it in - /etc/aliases is pathetic and annoying, and this
virtual domains thing is a _significant_ step forward in the usefulness
of exim4.

i seriously considered ripping out a very sophisticated and
simple-to-set-up arrangement, and replacing it with postfix, _just_
because this virtual domains thing took me so long to find.

please add it!

it does no harm if /etc/exim4/virtual is empty.
