The difference between this and my setup is you're using postfix rather than exim. It's not a problem other than I've never used it. I'm cc'ing this to debian-user; someone there may be able to spot the problem right away. > Note; > The 81.86.129.218 ip is my home ip address. > The 82.148.56.154 ip is the ip of the debian machine. > > > All help again would be greatly appreciated. Here's hoping someone on d-u can point you in the right direction.
