these are questions that surface for me every time I do an installation and i'm still confused about them 1. qualify-domain and local_domains;a If I put my isp's domain, it works but if I send to somebody else at the same domain it gets treated as local and never goes anywhere outside my machine. If I put my machine name for both, I may get "host unknown' when sending. If I put my isp's domain for qualify_domain and my machine name for local_domains (with localhost), I may end up with a loop where mail that should be local goes back out to my isp. And i'm not sure where using /etc/email-addresses comes in here either. There also would be the option of putting my fqdn in one or both places: machinename.isp.com; is this what should be in either or both places? My machinename is n't a registered domain or anythig, just the name i've given my machine.
Also, after changing /etc/exim/exim.conf, the documentation says to give exim the 'sighup' signal so the new configuration will be used. Just exactly how do I do this? It does appear that re-booting starts exim with the configuration changes but obviously this is not what the documentation is saying to do. Thanks.
