list,
I have a mail server running etch and another etch machine and they both
have exim. The second machine is configured to use the first as a
smarthost with smtp authentication and this worked well until they were
able to connect to each other by IPv6. After that, any attempted relay
is denied. I tried putting the IPv6 address and/or the subnet in places
like
dc_relay_nets in update-exim4.conf.conf and MAIN_RELAY_NETS in
exim4.conf.localmacros but it didn't help. I then tried using Icedove
and the smtp authentication worked, from the same machine and again over
IPv6, so it looks like the smtp authentication client in exim has a
problem.
below is an example mail -v from the client machine.
Thanks for any help.
Nick
