# 15. The accept router

The accept router has no private options of its own. Unless it is being used purely for verification (see `verify_only`) a transport is required to be defined by the generic `transport` option. If the pre-conditions that are specified by generic options are met, the router accepts the address and queues it for the given transport. The most common use of this router is for setting up deliveries to local mailboxes. For example:

      localusers:
        driver = accept
        domains = mydomain.example
        check_local_user
        transport = local_delivery

The `domains` condition in this example checks the domain of the address, and `check_local_user` checks that the local part is the login of a local user. When both pre-conditions are met, the accept router runs, and queues the address for the local_delivery transport.
