Hello,

can someone please give me a hint where I can find the rules for address 
rewriting (for MX of course).

I have no problems to rewrite simple adresses, but now I have a rather 
complicated one. Our VAX routes all mail to a SUN. Problems arises, when 
I send some mail to *.uucp. The SUN tries to transfer the mail with uucp 
(nothing is set up for that purpose), rather than sending it via our 
ISDN link to the EUnet mail server. I know, we should fix it in the SUN 
routing, but didn't succeed until know.

I thought I could fix it with a rewrite rule in MX.

Address: hamcall.ampr.org!hamcall@uucphost.uucp (strange!)
It works, when I send to: 
hamcall.ampr.org!hamcall%uucphost.uucp@germany.eu.net

How can I deal with this situation? Is there a multitoken variable, like
{everything@uucphost.uucp}->{everything%uucphost.uucp@germany.eu.net},
because I never know the number of tokens of the first part...

Hans.
