Configuration for exim

		To configure exim4 to accept emails from your domain, add the line

		dc_other_hostnames='yourdomain.com'

		to the file

		/etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf

		Yes, two `.conf' extensions.  Then run the script:

		% update-exim4.conf [with options]

		On Debian, simply run

		% dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config
		

Can I use wildcards?

You can use a wildcard '*' as email, which will match any email address. If you add other forwards, this one will match the rest, and not the already existing forwards.
For example you can then send account@domain.com to someone at a gmail address, and all the rest to you.

What is the UUCP? checkbox for?

If you use UUCP for this domain, you can ask for this forward to be also sent to you through UUCP, so you can save a copy. If you go on vacation, put a forward to receive your mails on a GMail account, when you come back home you'll still have all your mails.
