What are the *full literal* log entries? They should include the name and PID of the process which had the problem. It's conceivable that something other than exim (e.g. mailman) is trying to work there. -- Bill Cole [email protected] or [email protected] (AKA @grumpybozo and many *@billmail.scconsult.com addresses) Not Currently Available For Hire -- ## 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/
