Does anyone have any ideas?
You didn't say what you changed with exim but I'm assuming you changed the "rewrite configuration" section at the bottom of /etc/exim.conf? Did you also include your user name and rewrite info in - /etc/email-addresses ? For example my rewrite configuration from /etc/exim.conf - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\ ^^^ {$value}fail} bcfrF hostname From /etc/email-addresses kent: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ^^^^ user name hth, kent -- From seeing and seeing the seeing has become so exhausted First line of "The Panther" - R.
