I added that to exim4.conf.template and got this error.
2004-05-18 21:35:10 Exim configuration error in line 47 of /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated.tmp: main option "smtp_accept_queues_per_connection" unknown Invalid new configfile /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated.tmp not installing /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated.tmp to /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated The FAQ said to add smtp_accept_queues_per_connection = 0 but just didn't say where.

R=smarthost_rewrite defer (-30): transport "remote_smtp_rewrite" not found in smarthost_rewrite router & I must have tried every option. twice, before I got it to accept mail for sending via mutt. Fixed now, thank GOD! I think the only problem now is the no immediate delivery: more than 10 messages received in one connection Which is why I am trying to find where to put the smtp_accept_queues_per_connection = 0 directive. Thanks for the try David. I will keep plugging away at it. Man I thought the docs for Qmail were obtuse. exim4 is a bear. Lots of info but confusing as heck.
