Hi guys I have been using exim4 for many years and there are some things that I have never managed to get my head around I am coming for help and I know many will say I should read the docs but that is part of the problem. I don't understand!
I am running Exim on an Ubuntu server which I know differs in a number of ways to the standard configuration and I think may not be supported by this mailing list but any help will be appreciated My main issue is with trying to get ACLs working properly The things I want to do is When a connection comes from an authenticated client then just let it proceed If a connection comes from elsewhere I want it to do fns checking and also prevent mail being sent as if from me One of my biggest spam problems is with mail appearing as if it is from me, I am sure this must be easy to filter but I just can't seem to get the server to even act on filters I try to configure. I am not sure where to start anymore as I have just ignored the problem for so long now I have forgotten where I was and every time I try to tackle it I feel like I have to try learn again from the beginning. The documentation although very clear does not seem to have any examples that look anything like my config file so I quickly get lost I don¹t get what the .ifndef statements do for example Should I just attach my entire config file to an email or do you want me to send sections Are there some commands I can run that help me debug the incoming email to see how it is being processed Is there a good place I can go with clear explanation of how to configure exim on an ubuntu server Lots of questions that I am sure will frustrate many of you, please be gentle Regards Hill -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
