That is the correct configuration directive. In a normal Exim config, you'd just add it in the main section near the top of /etc/exim/exim.conf. However Debian does this non-standard thing where the config is split across several files and it constructs a real config for you using those files. That "disable_ipv6 = true" directive needs to end up in the main section of the final Exim config. I'm guessing that means you need to put it in one of the files in /etc/exim4/conf.d/ or something? I use Debian myself, but the first thing I do after installing Exim is an "rm -rf /etc/exim4/*" and then create an exim4.conf manually. FWIW, there is a Debian specific Exim mailing list where you might get better help: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-exim4-users -- Mike Cardwell https://grepular.com https://emailprivacytester.com OpenPGP Key 35BC AF1D 3AA2 1F84 3DC3 B0CF 70A5 F512 0018 461F XMPP OTR Key 8924 B06A 7917 AAF3 DBB1 BF1B 295C 3C78 3EF1 46B4
