Seeing as there are some people around here that seem to understand
exim, I thought that I'd try and sort out an answer to something at
home.
I have a simple network like this:
|
| dialup
-------- --------
|dially|---------|homepc|
-------- LAN --------
I have dially running ppp, in the 'dial-on-demand' mode. Most of the
time I leave dially turned off (as most of the time I don't want to
be connected, I only have one phone line). I do all my work on homepc.
I can see that it is possible to fire up an exim process on dialup,
and to unthaw the message queue.
Is it possible to configure exim on homepc to use dially as a smart
relay, and to continually poll dially (say every 5 minutes) to try
and deliver email? It could be almost a week between times that
dially actually dials up (or is even turned on). I don't want the
exim on homepc freezing emails if it can't send them out though.
Cheers
Geoff Crompton
