Hi we recently setup uucp with exim 1.73 with the help of someone on this list.
Our uucp customer is using mailcoach on their win95 machine and dials up to our system regularly to send and receive via uucp.
They receive email perfectly.
When the send email, the original header is inside a new header with our mailserver as the sender.
The customer also complains our mailserver is adding character to his email. I can't see how.
He also has a problem in that attachments are not being decoded by the recipients email client, they just see it in the body of the message still encoded.
I really would like some help on this, and I've got 48 hours to get it right.
Postcards from Cobram, Vic, Australia for the ones who can help. *smile*
Here's a few config items.
1. /etc/exim.conf (only parts I think might be relevant to uucp)
GENERAL CONFIG
trusted_users = mail:majordomo:uucp
received_header_text = "Received: \

{${if def:sender_ident {from ${sender_ident} }}}}\
by ${primary_hostname} \
${if def:received_protocol {with ${received_protocol}}} \
(Exim ${version_number} #${compile_number})\n\t\
id ${message_id} (Debian)"
