Yesterday I decided to replace Sendmail with Exim. I used apt-get to download and install it, and soon got it up and working. The *only* thing which appears not to work is the mail I used to get from, for example, cron when a cron job in /etc/crontab executed overnight. When I used sendmail, I used to get a message telling me what had happened. Now I get nothing.
In /etc/exim.conf I have set 'local_domains = localhost'. I have set gmx.net *not* to be a local domain, because it is not unique and many share it. My hostname is scgf. Should I set scgf.gmx.net (the fully qualified domain of my machine) as a local domain? That will be unique to me. Many thanks. Sorry if I have not given enough info. You can probably tell more from my headers than I can give! -- Phillip Deackes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian Linux (Potato)
