Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.69-1
Severity: wishlist
The exim4 configuration integration with debconf is quite nice, but is
missing a feature that I need and others may find useful: the use of a
non-standard port with the smarthost. Some networks block port 25, and
to compensate, some ISPs allow SMTP connections on non-standard ports.
Mine is one such.
The config change is quite simple: the addition of a
REMOTE_SMTP_SMARTHOST_PORT macro, and of this text in the
"remote_smtp_smarthost" transport:
.ifdef REMOTE_SMTP_SMARTHOST_PORT
port = REMOTE_SMTP_SMARTHOST_PORT
.endif
Until this is added, I have to tweak the provided configuration on each
upgrade.
