need help with exim setup
I have ppp connection to my ISP, peakpeak.com. I have a LAN for my wife's iMac and my two Debian machines. All internet traffic goes thru the single ppp connection. I have set up exim using choise 2 in the exim config. I use [EMAIL PROTECTED] and my wife uses [EMAIL PROTECTED] Email to and from the internet works for both my wife and I, but ... 1. I can't send email to my wife, and 2. I can't send email to ISP support services, for which the address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think that these two problems are the result of improper configuration of exim. Exim seems to be attempting to deliver both kinds of email locally rather than sending them out to the smtp service at the ISP, and, of course, it can't deliver because neither address is known locally. For my wife, I wouldn't mind having local delivery, but for the ISP's support, I definitely need to send the mail off site. Am I right about this being an exim config problem? And, what should I change to fix it? TIA PS Why email my wife? We do talk to each other, but stuff about software updates for the iMac come to me, and forwarding the email to her would be a reliable way to get hot-links onto the iMac. -- Paul E Condon [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Run the config tool ('eximconfig'). Pick option number 2 (smarthost
relay). This means that exim will accept mail coming from your own
machine and send it towards its destination using a real server that
you need to specify. Specify the mail server that your ISP provides.
You may need to use authentication on that server or it will drop your
messages -- to do this uncomment some of the lines near the end of the
config file that is generated and include the correct username and
password. If you want your machine to serve as the mail server for
the windows boxes, there might be some more configuration necessary, I
don't know because I haven't gotten there yet.

Didn't this come uip earlier today? Just select option 1 in eximconfig, enter your domain name when asked, enter the local IP address range and don't allow relaying. -- Patrick sig free and joyful Kirk GSM: +44 7876 560 646 ICQ: 42219699

You need to set the host_accept_relay parameter in exim.conf to contain
your local network. An SMTP AUTH configuration (see below) will also
work.
Beside this, there are about 4 users (all regular unix-users), who
should have the possibility to access exim from the internet. Each
user should be allowed to send whereever he/she wants to; but I do not
like to set up an spam-over-this-server exim...
You need SMTP AUTH - the mail client sends their username and password to
the mail server. If the authentication information was correct they're
allowed to relay through. If these 4 people have static (ie unchanging
over long periods of time) IP numbers you can also use host_accept_relay
(above) to let them relay mail.
The quick and dirty way to do this would be:
In the global section add:
host_accept_relay = /etc/exim/host-relay
host_auth_accept_relay = *
auth_always_advertise = false
exim_user = root
And add this to the very end of the config file, after the rewrite
section:
end
##
# AUTHENTICATOR CONFIGURATION #
##
plain:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
server_set_id = $2
server_condition = ${if pam{$2:$3}{1}{0}}
login:
driver = plaintext
public_name = LOGIN
server_prompts = Username:: : Password::
server_condition = ${if pam{$1:$2}{1}{0}}
server_set_id = $1
end
