Hi all, I'm trying get a Debian box to act as a mail server. I'm using exim. Presently, it receives mail, but it won't send mail, at least to the destinations I've been using for testing.
When it tries to connect to a mail server, the connection is either refused or just hangs and then times out. Just to test, I also tried using telnet to connect to port 25 of the same hosts. Same thing: either "telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused" or nothing. The weird thing is: I think I had it working earlier yesterday, and since then, I've hardly changed anything...just some rewriting and aliasing configuration in exim. On what basis could a mail server decide which hosts it is going to allow to connect to it? Thanks for your help. -- David Steinberg [EMAIL PROTECTED]
