I ... do not think we're talking about the same thing? In nmh's termology, the smtp MTS is speaking directly to a SMTP server. A local version of exim4 wouldn't be involved. This would involve configuration settings like this: send: -server some.smarthost.com -port submission -user username@domain It sounds like you're using the "sendmail/smtp" MTS, which runs whatever you are using as a local copy of sendmail but speaks SMTP to it (generally by using the -bs flag). This is distinct from "sendmail/pipe" (the old undocumented spost), which runs your sendmail with the -t flag and just outputs the message via a pipe to the sendmail program. I hope this all is clearer than mud :-/ --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
