No! It doesn't have that user.
This is my workstation and it's only have "root" and myself only.
My email server is running on Lotus Domino R5 and I want to download all
the emails from there to my woody box( and read them using Mutt).

Yes! this may be the problem. but sice this is my workstation I can't
have all the user ids that are in my email server has. There should be
some way of authentication methode to do this from my email server.
I have a another machine (Woody) which has KMail configured and it's working
fine with the setup( where Exim is not installed). I think this is something
wrong in my exim.conf, Any idea?
Thanks!
