The message as of right now is:
IP-addresses to listen on for incoming SMTP connections: Please enter a semicolon-separated list of IP addresses. The Exim SMTP listener daemon will listen on all IP addresses listed here. It has been that way since at least 4.63-9. The additional help seems the right place to put this. That said, this field should be easy to validate, as it sounds like only components of ipv6 or ipv4 addresses are allowed, and semi-colon. I've forwarded this to the debian BTS as thats probably a better place to address this. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=612103 Marking Triaged, setting Importance to Wishlist. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #612103 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=612103 ** Changed in: exim4 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: exim4 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Also affects: exim4 (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=612103 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to exim4 in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289311 Title: Not clear what delimiter to use when configuring exim4 listen interfaces -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
