EXIM sending mail to the wrong user!

It looks like since cpanel STABLE_90 any mail sent to a main user @ virtualdomain.com is being sent to the wrong user! For instance when I send to mainuser@virtualdomain.com the message get\'s sent to the main account for the reseller of their virtual domain (as setup in WHM)... does that make sense? I\'m tempted to revert to the /ect/exim.conf that is pre STABLE_90... does you know if that would cause more problems?

Okay, I\'ve found out that it has nothing to do with the reseller, the mail get\'s bounced to my own email address regardless of the reseller the account is under. Why my address? I don\'t know. I\'ve searched /etc/exim.conf, valiases/, and domainalias configuration files and didn\'t see anything out of the ordinary. Anybody have any ideas?

The pertinent line in /var/log/exim_mainlog looks like:

2002-02-05 17:04:08 16YDh9-0003j6-00 => myusername <otherusername@virtualdomain.com> D=localuser T=local_delivery

I would expect to see:

2002-02-05 17:04:08 16YDh9-0003j6-00 => otherusername <otherusername@virtualdomain.com> D=localuser T=local_delivery

/scripts/fixpop

I found that running /scripts/fixpop on the main username for each domain fixes the problem, but it sticks the mail in
/home/mainusername/mail/mainusername/inbox
instead of in:
/home/mainusername/mail/inbox
like it did before... is that a problem?

/scripts/fixpop solution

Okay, I ran the /script/fixpop program on the accounts and they seems to be recieving their mail properly, but one side effect I\'ve noticed is that in their cpanel add/remove mail accounts page their main address is now listed twice... it\'s in there once as the main account (with no @virtualdomain.com after it) and then listed a second time just like a normal address. Is this a problem?
