Sounds like a problem with exim, not uw-imap. Or maybe you are upgrading from a very old system? Have a look here: http://list.waikato.ac.nz/pipermail/wlug/2004-September/005516.html And report back both if it worked for you, and more info on your system that might help figure out if this is a bug somewhere in Debian or perhaps a situation that is known but unsupported (like upgrading from potato directly to sarge). - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFC+KUYn7DbMsAkQLgRAq3VAKCmXS2nUZQuR63/d318rfAkKwE3dwCdHzGw 7mFm5Gz8fBzqn+jE2BPhTxs= =JpdW -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
