Hi. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.

I can't think of any reason why this would happen. I suggest running with debugging on to see what's happening.

mail and mutt will be invoking exim with the -bm option (or without any option at all, since that's the default). You can try manually running "/usr/sbin/exim -bm [EMAIL PROTECTED]". If this works, you should be able to type in an email, headers and all, and finish with a dot on a line by itself, and the email should then be sent. If that works, then there's something odd about the way mutt and mail are invoking exim, and I'd look into their configuration.

If as I suspect that doesn't work, try again but with "-d" added to the command line. This turns on the lowest level of debugging. There are other levels of debugging which might be useful, try with "-d9" for the highest, but they only work if you are an admin user (because they can reveal passwords etc which you might not want all your users to see). To set yourself up as an admin user, put any group that you are a member of into the list of groups in the admin_groups config file option.

If you need any help understanding the output of this, I'm happy to have a look at them. Either way, please tell me what you find out (particularly if it looks like a bug in exim or its packaging, of course).
