I added an extra ip address to my loopback interface and pointed my router there. I also added a local_interfaces directive in my exim configure file to keep exim from listening on port 25 on the 127.0.0.2.
I am shocked that yahoo will not support STARTTLS. They appear to be using qmail so it should be very easy. I know that the reason they use 465 is because of Microsoft's broken clients. Anyone know if Outlook in Office 2007 still has this problem? I was going to post the email I received, but Richard found the link on the support pages. Port 25 will work until March 1st. After that it is TLS-on-connect on 465 or bust! Thank you for all of your help. -- ## 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/
