I setup exim on my system this weekend, but it's not working quite
right. I had a school assignment to create a simple smtp client so I
setup exim so I could test it without blocking the phone line. exim
delivers locally just fine. However, it won't send any mail to other
domains. I have it configured as a "smarthost" and I can send
messages using the remote server via telnet. exim's log seems to
indicate that it thinks it delivered the message, but messages aren't
getting out.
A section from my /etc/exim/exim.conf (let me know if you want to see
more :-)) ;
smarthost:
driver = domainlist
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * mail.rit.edu bydns_a
From /var/log/exim/mainlog I have :
2001-07-31 08:44:44 15RYtA-0000Jm-00 <= [EMAIL PROTECTED] U=dman P=local S=447
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
2001-07-31 08:44:46 15RYtA-0000Jm-00 => [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smarthost
T=remote_smtp H=mail.rit.edu [129.21.2.241]
2001-07-31 08:44:46 15RYtA-0000Jm-00 Completed
which looks to me like I sent the message ('hudson' is the current
name of my debian box and 'dman' is my login, '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' is
one of my valid addresses at school). The problem is that I never got
the message in my inbox (on the school's server).
Any ideas?
