[rt-users] Exim alias dilemma

[Paul Burkett]

It still doesn't work, so I don't need to add anything to me /etc/aliases ?

Also, is there a list of actions, I am trying to send to address rt-5e+correspond at localdomain.com is this wrong? Is there an action to create a new ticket? Thanks

Does anybody know any reasons why? I'm using Exim and I copied and pasted the code from the guide in the correct locations of the exim.conf Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
