Default Exim grabbing mail intended for another server on our LAN?

Dear All,

We have an Exim server that we use for our main corporate mail traffic
(POP / SMTP). I've just setup another server on our LAN that we have a
specific for.

Whenever I address mail to user.name@newserver.ourdomain.com or indeed
user.name@192.168.x.x.ourdomain.com using the existing corporate Exim
server as the SMTP relay, messages end up in the user's account on the
_existing_ Exim server and not the new one. Very odd!

Is there something in the conf on our existing Exim server that's
spotting "user.name@<anything>.ourdomain.com and derlivering it to
mailboxes on itself instead of the intended destination server?

Incidentally the accounts "user.name" acocunts exist on both servers &
both machines reside on the same subnet.

Thanks in advance,

Steve

check the "local delivery derective" in exim.conf.
also debugging might help: start exim as exim -d -bd on a console and
watch the output. it shows quite detailed information of what is happening
