i hear this is supposed to happen on the phab host itself rather than in global exim aliases

eh.. or on the RT host itself before/if we dont switch DNS over

..because it is a subdomain of wikimedia.org, rt.wikimedia.org

@Chase : on magnesium, create a new file in /etc/exim4/aliases/ called "rt.wikimedia.org", then just alias lines like:

maintenance: maintenance@phabricator.wikimedia.org

?

i tested a bit. so this is works:

on magnesium, add to /etc/aliases (not /etc/exim4/aliases/foo), it is configured like this:

"# Use the system aliasfile /etc/aliases for system domains" and rt.wikimedia.org is a system domain

i temp. put my own email address there as an alias for the unused legal queue, then sent a mail to the RT queue from zirconium.

magnesium delivered it to polonium and i received it just fine. (i got a permission error that i cant create tickets in that queue, but that is not what we are testing :)

so we can just add aliases there to forward some queues over to whatever@phabricator.wikimedia.org

updated https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/168733/

updated again. using the native puppet type mailalias now. and merged ... see on gerrit
