Hi,

I want cron to deliver an e-mail throught exim to an Exchange server,
running on the same machine.

If I use MAILTO="user AT remote_domain,user" in my crontab, both the remote
and the local user get the mail which is delivered in /var/mail/spool.

If I use MAILTO="user AT remote_domain,user AT local_domain", the remote user
still gets his e-mail, but the mail the user AT local_domain is not
delivered to the local running Exchange server. The exim logfile shows
"user AT local_domain R=nslookup defer (-1) : remote host address is the
local host" and the next line say "Frozen"

I have read the docs but I still do not understand how to make exim
deliver the mail for the user AT local_domain at the local exchange server.
Can anyone help me with this? What should I do to make this work?

TIA
