I just installed Debian 2.1, and swifted from Smail to Exim. I'm having some trouble with it, though:
I lost some incoming mail as I tried to use Exim with the same .forward and .procmailrc scripts I had with Debian 2.0, it sent mails to /var/spool/exim/input/ and /var/spool/exim/msglog/. I believe Exim complained about |exec and IFS (I tried both with .forward). This is what I had in my ~/.forward: "|exec /usr/bin/procmail" ¿Any idea? Also, the problem with the From: header... my email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED], but smail used to write it as [EMAIL PROTECTED] (horacio being the user in the machine). I "solved" that by creating an user "homega"; now, I'm trying to work it right with Exim, so I created user "horacio" and in ~/.muttrc: unmy_hdr From: my_hdr From: J Horacio M G <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> my_hdr Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Horacio) but this is still not the way it should be done... or is it? how can I tell the MTA to show the full correct address? TIA Horacio
