I think i solved it:

from:

http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.60/doc/html/filter.html#SECTex 
<http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.60/doc/html/filter.html#SECTex>

# Exim filter
if $local_part_suffix contains "mytest-" and
$local_part_suffix contains "-alex"
then
save $home/mail/alex_test
endif

and put it into a file called .forward

anyone agree with this?

Alex

    hi evolt

    Im working a mini project concerning the exim MTA.

    The documentation is very detailed and well written but Im on a short
    time budget and it would be great to find out how to configure exim to
    accept messages of a
    certain type with the flexiblity to handle wildcards but with also a
    fixed
    string.

    So we have something of the form:

    mytest*alex at deltatraffic.co.uk <mailto:mytest*alex at deltatraffic.co.uk>

    where *

    could be something like

    "-123772-" or "-234899-"  or "-[n]-"

    Tried a few things but making something a bit more selective than a
    catch all account is proving difficult
