It shouldn't matter. As long as a working one is installed, works in a commonly expected manner, and is prepared to accept mail from whatever user the job runs as. That last one could be your issue, seeing as you say it works. Also, since you say you compiled it, perhaps check for SELinux issues, perhaps on the cron jobs, too. I'm not familiar with exim, though have used postfix and sendmail (the two usual culprits). -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 (yes, this is the output from uname for this PC when I posted) Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted. I will only get to see the messages that are posted to the mailing list. -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
