Dave, As of now, those are the settings in my exim.conf file, so unfortunately that does not solve the problem-- any other ideas? I have tried using mail and pine to send the messages, and both to no avail. As an aside, the conf file has the following in its rewrite section:
# These rewriters make sure the mail messages appear to have originated # from the real mail-reading host. ^(?i)(root|postmaster|mailer-daemon)@caliban [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ffr [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ffr [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ffr However, I do not understand what the in.limbo is for; but even so, I do not think it has to do with my problem, does it? All out of ideas, ~Matt ================================================================= ========= Dave Sherohman wrote:================================ Although there are other things that could be wrong, check that these three settings are correct in /etc/exim.conf: qualify_domain = remotehost.com (Substitute your ISP for remotehost.com) qualify_recipient = localhost (You should be OK substituting your machine's name here, but I suggest leaving it as "localhost" so that if you just send mail to "user" without specifying a hostname, exim won't convert it to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".) local_domains = localhost:mymachine (If remotehost.com is included here, sending mail to other users of your ISP is problematic, as they're recognized as being local accounts. If you have multiple boxen on your end, make this local_domains = localhost:mymachine:myothermachine:...)
