Thanks for all Your responses. Indeed it was a RTFM-question as I know now. The confusion was, that I thought I already disabled Ident erlier by commenting it out. Blame on me that commenting it out means wating 30s if client drops ident-query silently (Debian Exim-2.5). Sincerly, Christoph PS Sorry for my double-post. One was hanging at our moderator and I thought he droped it. exim-user in digest mode is sometimes confusing. -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
