Hi
I think this could be caused by the recent configuration file format
change. When I upgraded exim, it commented out the exim line in inetd.conf
and told me to check the configuration before re-enabling it.

Yes, that's the problem. I don't re

Yes, that's the problem. I don't re
Hi Drew;
Did you tell dpkg during the installation to run it as a deamon?
inetd _should_ launch exim as the virtual package for mail otherwise.
It sounds as though your problem was indeed different than the one that
I experienced. I have not tried to use exim on any potato machine except
as a da

In this case it is most probably NOT a problem with sockets, RPC, inetd,
etc. I had two machines that "suffered" from this problem when upgraded.
The apparent problem is that there was more than one "common practice"
way of configuring the exim-fetchmail relationship in bo, hamm, slink that
will n

Hi Drew;
I have been running potato on the machine that handles mail for a long time
now but remember having the problem you described.
I wish I was more sure that this is your problem than I am but...
In your fetchmailrc file I think you need:
set invisible (near the top)
and
smt

That means that nobody lisens to port 25.
Did you reboot after the update? If you have strange problems like
that, a reboot is allways the easiest to check if its a
start-stop-deamon problem.

Just when I thought I had my mail system all working properly, I had to go and
"upgrade" to potato. Bad move.
I'm using exim to distribute my mail, fetching it from my mail server using
fetchmail. But now when I run fetchmail, I get the following error:
4 messages for dparsons at purple.ucdav
