Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.43-3
Severity: normal
I am trying to send a message from my laptop, through my smarthost, addressed
from an account at a different domain. The message is addressed to this email
address, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, which is yet a different domain. I am
receiving the following error from exim:
2005-01-17 08:58:39 1CqJ7w-00026V-0F == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smarthost
T=remote_smtp_smarthost defer (-1): Failed to expand return path "${if [EMAIL
PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]": syntax error in "if" item - "fail" expected
which appears to come from line 255 in /usr/sbin/update-exim4.conf:
DEBCONFreturn_pathDEBCONF='return_path = ${if [EMAIL PROTECTED]
match_domain{$sender_address_domain}{'"$mailname"'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
I wish I could provide a patch, but I don't understand the syntax of these
files.
