I want to conclude this thread with a summary. I hope some may
benefit from this.
First many thanks to Gregory Nowak, Jonathan Dowland, Chris Davies,

I am really beginning to hate squirrelmail. It doesn't thread, it
doesn't break lines to 72 (or whatever) chars... But I am stuck
with using it unless someone can tell me where to look for my
misconfiguration. I have a server (actually a vm with Bytemark) on
which I run courier-imap and exim4.
Hi all,
I'm little confused about the exim4 configuration trying to reconfigure
it with base-config.
My wish is to send all emails generated by the system to my
email-address <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. By this it doesn't matter if it's
mail for root or postmaster or some other
o/replying to, but I never got
around to do that part.
What would be the easiest way to achieve this in the Debian Exim4
configuration scheme?
Help please!
