I don't have an answer, but I'll chime in that I spent 8 hours Saturday trying to configure exim4 (I had been using exim3 successfully, but wanted to add spamassassin and get up to date). I ultimately failed because it simply would not authenticate with my isp's (SBC Yahoo DSL) smtp server. I installed esmtp and had everything working in less than 30 minutes. exim4 is obviously working for many, maybe most, people, but its documentation is forboding and yet seems to be missing some information. I ended up disgusted with both myself and the tool. And Google failed me, too. -- Michael Epting -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
