I've lost e-mail, and so in desperation turn to news groups. In trying to configure my exim4 to use spamassassin, I apparently messed up the confituration somehow. At first, all downloaded messages were deleted as spam, and as I fiddled, fetchmail could not download messages because the mail server did not like the information it received (SMTP error: 550 Administrative prohibition), and now fetchmail does not even see any messages.
I'm running debian etch. Doing # exim4 -d did not reveal anything meaninfful to me. When all mail was rejected as spam, my exim4 reject log had entries, but now no more. Here is my exim4 configuration: # It sounds like I should change it to true to get exim4 to use # sa-exim: local_scan_path='true' # 2007april: I reduced dc_other_hostnames to just my FQDN # I changed dc_local_interfaces='' to # dc_local_interfaces='127.0.0.1' dc_eximconfig_configtype='smarthost' dc_other_hostnames='hartford-hwp.com' dc_local_interfaces='127.0.0.1' dc_readhost='hartford-hwp.com' dc_relay_domains='' dc_minimaldns='false' dc_relay_nets='' # 2007oct27: Web.com servers went SSL, and so I had to change smtp server # name to first line, which is a link. Link could be broken, so change to # hanme of link target. I tried but failed to revert from target to link. # dc_smarthost='smtp.hartford-hwp.com' dc_smarthost='mymail.myregisteredsite.com' I'm not sure where to start. -- Haines Brown, KB1GRM -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
