Are you sure, that the mail is not *sent*?

If you tell Mutt to send the mail, it gives it to exim via a command.
With 'mailq' you can see your mail queue, it is empty? So, it could
be, that the mail is already sent by exim. Check the log files in
/var/log for more information...
Oh, I've an idea. Some mail servers (for example GMX's ones) filter
(yes, they just kick them out) mails, which have some header wrong
header entries. For example, if you have an "X-Sender:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]" entry, it gets filtered out by GMX,
IIRC. Try sending yourself a mail local, just to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Does this mail arrive? Can you see, wether it has
"bad" headers?

The standard eximconfig has alway worked fine for me.
