Well, if I put egonzales@ backupserver.oms.local then how would I get the email if my email address is egonza...@buckeyeusd.org<mailto:egonza...@buckeyeusd.org>? I tried it anyways and it still says its unroutable. What I got is a exchange 2007 email server so I need the backup server to send the email through that. I do got a few appliances that already do that so I know my email server will allow it. My email server is not on the same subnet or domain as my backup server. if someone has time I can use a walk through of the exim4 config screens.

It seems like the easiest solution, though, is to change the delivery email address. If you want local delivery, shouldn't you tell BackupPC to direct mail to egonza...@backupserver.oms.local?

These domains are commonly called 'local domains'. The local hostname and 'localhost' are always added to the list given here. Entering buckeyeusd.org<http://buckeyeusd.org> here would cause all mail sent to that domain to be delivered locally. If that's not want you want, try this: hostname -f That should give you your fully qualified domain name. Supply that instead of buckeyeusd.org<http://buckeyeusd.org> to BackupPC and you should be good. From your log snippet it looks like your FQDN is backupserver.oms.local. -Frank On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 4:25 PM, Eddie Gonzales <egonza...@buckeyeusd.org<mailto:egonza...@buckeyeusd.org>> wrote: This is from the Exim4 logs...it looks like it thinks my email is Non-Local.

If one or the other is, then you'll want to check the system logs, I'm not familiar enough with Debian, you could probably find them in the /var/log or /var/log/mail.
