Thus telling exim to only listen on an interface local to the machine
(i.e. not network-facing).

and now it's not listening on interfaces that aren't connected to
anything outside of the machine.

Exim's doing exactly what you asked it to. If you want to be able to
receive connections from other machines, why did you tell it to only
listen on an interface that can't do that?

Bug#741729: exim4-config: Exim4 fail to send and receive mail when set dc_local_interfaces

2014-03-16 Thread Corcodel Marian
Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.80-7
Severity: important

For checking this bug edit /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf:
asd@marian1000:~$ cat /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.con
$ cat /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf
# /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf
#
# Edit this file and /etc/mailname by hand and execute update-exim4.conf
# yourself or use 'dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config'
#
# Please note that this is _not_ a dpkg-conffile and that automatic changes
# to this file might happen. The code handling this will honor your local
# changes, so this is usually fine, but will break local schemes that mess
# around with multiple versions of the file.
#
# update-exim4.conf uses this file to determine variable values to generate
# exim configuration macros for the configuration file.
#
# Most settings found in here do have corresponding questions in the
# Debconf configuration, but not all of them.

# This is a Debian specific file
