[PLUG] exim4 and local delivery


I'm using exim4 and it's working quite well except that it doesn't
understand that username@purple.com is for local delivery.  It also
doesn't understand that mail to username@`hostname`.purple.com is for
local delivery.  It gets it write on username@localhost.

Any thoughts on what to do?  There used to be a file (in exim3) that
gave local delivery equivalences.  The Debian config used to ask about
this, but I don't think it did this time.  Or I mis-answered.
"dpkg-reconfigure exim4" doesn't do anything that I can see.

Here's a sample log entry from sending myself mail from astra to astra
(per aspera):
