Hi, I must use smtp authentocation with exim as a client.
My /etc/exim/auth file contained the line mail.tu-berlin.de:^user^password but this doesn't work. I had to change it to 130.149.7.33:^user^password which works because | 130.149.7.33 in hosts_try_auth? yes (matched "*") | scanning authentication mechanisms | search_open: lsearch "/etc/exim/auth" | search_find: file="/etc/exim/auth" | key="130.149.7.33" partial=-1 affix=NULL starflags=0 | LRU list: | 9/etc/exim/auth | End | internal_search_find: file="/etc/exim/auth" | type=lsearch key="130.149.7.33" | file lookup required for 130.149.7.33 | in /etc/exim/auth | lookup yielded: ^user^password This is uncomfortable as IP may change :-( How to force exim to do the lookup with the hostname (from router)?
