Subject: Re: Newbie question: Exim - trouble receiving incoming emails
No I was just asking. I'm just trying to figure out why I can send email
from my server and manually to it via telnet, but all other messages from
mail clients get rejected...
did you do this telnet from the server? or from a remote machine? if
you did it from the server, it will, of course, connect. again, can
you see the email you manually sent? does it show in the exim logs?
/var/log/exim4/mainlog
Yes I was emailing from remote machines. I tested sending directly from the
remote server and from secondary mail clients that used the remote server.
Strangely all the messages are coming through now and I have no idea why. I
wonder if my ISP updated its DNS info while I've been fiddling with my
server, or have I just hit a magic button? :-)
Anyway it seems to be working now so thanks to you ( and the others ) for
helping me troubleshoot this.
Cheers,
-Duncan
