I think you're going to do better using that exchange box as a smarthost. dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config and select the smarthost option. It will prompt you for information on the smarthost (address etc). Then exim will behave just like any ol' email client and connect to that exchange host. If you need to qualify yourself to that host, then use /etc/exim4/passwd.client to store login and password. That did the trick!!! Thanks for all of your help! Now that this is working, maybe I can get a better email client setup for this list before my next question comes up! :-) Thanks again! Nathan
