That uses a file called /etc/exim4/passwd.client to configure your smarthost username and password Put an email in ther queue with the network diconnected, list it using sudo mailq and then reconnect the network and run a foreground delivery with sudo runq -v check that authentication succeeds. -- Jasen. -- ## 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/
