What exactly did you do to /etc/exim.conf? The section configuring a smarthost setup in my /etc.exim.conf looks like this: ###################################################################### # ROUTERS CONFIGURATION # # Specifies how remote addresses are handled # ###################################################################### # ORDER DOES MATTER # # A remote address is passed to each in turn until it is accepted. # ###################################################################### # Remote addresses are those with a domain that does not match any item # in the "local_domains" setting above. # Send all mail to a smarthost smarthost: driver = domainlist transport = remote_smtp route_list = "* foo.bar.net bydns_a" end You would replace "foo.bar.net" above with the name of your ISP's mail server. This is for exim 3.12-10 in potato. Also, for outgoing mail to work on a smarthost setup, you'll have to edit the file /etc/email-addresses. It is commented and shows you the syntax to associate your login name on your system with an email address on your smarthost. If you don't do this, your outgoing mail will be broken. If you have done these things, and outgoing mail is still broken, check /var/log/exim/mainlog for interesting messages and post back to the list. Hope this helps. Cordially, Mark S. Reglewski
