This is normal and expected. The Received: headers are there so that you can track down problems with mail transfer. Each MTA that sees the message adds itself to the top of the Received: list. What exim is saying is that it saw the message, and the envelope sender was "ben" on the "localhost" machine. That is, you (as a user) asked exim (on your machine) to transfer the message for you. -D -- "...the word HACK is used as a verb to indicate a massive amount of nerd-like effort." -Harley Hahn, A Student's Guide to Unix
