Yes, this is true. Exim is started in rc.d scripts by root. > Running Exim using -C has a number of complications. Do you get the same > problem if you run Exim without using -C? Removing -C argument (with copying 'configure' to exim's default etc folder) does not give any effect. > Try starting the daemon, then sending it a HUP signal, *then* sending > the message. Yes, this works - second line in header files changes to "mailnull 26 6". I also tried to check how exim 4.54 fills header files just after restart and found that it has similar behaviour. First time it uses "root 0 0", but it switches to "mailnull 26 6" after HUP. -- Cronfy. -- ## 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/
