I put the exim.conf I use at home at http://tux.creighton.edu/~pbrutsch/exim.conf. I'm on a cable modem at home, but that's an irrevelant detail since I'm still using POP3 to get the messages for exim to deliver. Note, however, that exim doesn't speak POP3. I use fetchmail (a POP3 client) to download the messages. I put an example config file at http://tux.creighton.edu/~pbrutsch/fetchmailrc. When fetchmail downloads the message, it will connect to port 25 on localhost, and deliver all messages it gets to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the example config file, be sure to replace local.user.name with your login ID on your Linux box. Also note that it's not a good idea to deliver direct from your dialup line - many people (including me) reject such messages. You should set exim to send outgoing email via a "smarthost" - I have an example in the exim config file I pointed you to. - -- - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Phil Brutsche [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG fingerprint: 9BF9 D84C 37D0 4FA7 1F2D 7E5E FD94 D264 50DE 1CFC GPG key id: 50DE1CFC GPG public key: http://tux.creighton.edu/~pbrutsch/gpg-public-key.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE6NVNb/ZTSZFDeHPwRAqg9AJ90maTgKmA5tU6KRb3kKx4kthARywCgicJ/ Q9WXOKk04FuE0hQg9viV6+s= =IWu6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
