Your Exim "uses" mailnull (as example) here, because your config states that (as example). You have to decide and define which user of your system you want to let Exim use to fork the script. At minimum, the regarding user must have access to the script and must be able to execute / run it. hth, niels. -- --- Niels Dettenbach Syndicat IT & Internet https://www.syndicat.com PGP: https://syndicat.com/pub_key.asc --- -- ## subscription configuration (requires account): ## https://lists.exim.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/exim-users.lists.exim.org/ ## unsubscribe (doesn't require an account): ## exim-users-unsubscr...@lists.exim.org ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/

Afaict the major effect should be a tiny speedup since a fork() and closing in stdin/out/err is avoided. Since exim would not write to stdout/err this should be it. Or am I missing something? cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
