Wouldn't people using outlook or whatever by relaying through the exchange server anyway? I don't know much about SMTP, but I thought this was the same process as what you're trying to do... > I guess I could just configure exim to send it > itself, but I need some way so that it doesn't inclue the debian host's > name in the 'from' address so that it is the same as if it came from the > exchange server. You can certainly do this. My mail claims to be from [EMAIL PROTECTED], but if you look through the headers for it, you'll find that it goes from this work station, through to my mail server, then straight to murphy.debian.org, without passing through any intermediary. You just need to tell exim to trust your local user (with the 'trusted_users' option) and tell your MUA to set whatever From: line you like. Well, that's how I do it...If I'm wrong, someone please tell me! Previously, I sent direct from this machine onto the Internet, and that worked fine as well. -rob
