Thanks Carel! This is exactly what I had in mind, but I
didn't know how to pull it off. Much nicer than my
/etc/init.d/tcp-pipes hack, though a bit more overhead
(slow on this 486/33, should be ok on the p3/500).

Hai Krzys,
sorry to bud in so late, and for breaking the thread referencing
but it was only after I deleted the whole thread from within mutt
that I realised that I might offer some help. I picked up your
first request from the muc.list.debian.user netnews copy of debian-user.

Yow. You mean I need to write my own daemon just to do this?! If
that's the case I think I'll foresake the idealistic Mutt and go back
to pine..

I consider it a good option for a host that is secondary MX for a lot
of domains. Saves its admin from maintaining a list of these domains

George and everyone else.
Thanks for the help.
We are now relay free according to all the tests I can do.
I have put exim on the firewall and am currently directly accessing it
via pop3 (qpopper). Now I would like to instead relay from exim on the
firewall to exim inside the firewall. How do I d
Ahh... I stand corrected.
I really should avoid answering mail relaying questions in hte middle of
the night!
Just as a side-note, it is a silly option anyway, isn't it? I've not used
it for anything useful... yet.

If you have the "relay-domains-include-local-MX = true" in your
/etc/exim.conf file, this is true. It WILL relay for anyone who lists
your machine as an MX for their domain (real, or not). I think this was
the original question.
The other gentleman is right about if this setting is NOT on, and

Did you turn off fetchmail's rewrite option?
Also you can tell exim:
