Hi, on an old Debian system an Exim3 works quite fine here. This is another attempt to switch to Exim4. My mails still refuse to leave the local network. I was working on it for several hours; I'm almost knocked off now.
My test message comes from a host other than the gateway and it contains a line as: "From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" I analyzed the temporary files /var/spool/exim/input/*-H on the gateway and detected the following differences: Line 2, Exim 3: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Line 2, Exim 4: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Last Lines, Exim 3: 051* Sender: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 035S Sender: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 058* X-rewrote-sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Last Line, Exim 4: 051* Sender: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I guess this has something to do with address rewriting but when looking at the exim.conf both of them contain the line [EMAIL PROTECTED] $header_from: Fs in the rewrite area. I tried loads of slight modifications of this, too. Asking for a -d+all option I yield an error message saying the rewriting failed because of the $header_from variable was empty. I'm using Gentoo now; USE flags: X ipv6 pam perl ssl tcpd. Could this be so difficult? Thanks for any hints in advance.
