I have compiled and installed exim in an attempt to replace sendmail.
But so far it does not work out to good.
My problem is to say it short, localhost.localdomain
If I try to send a mai from ex. slrn. I get a post with a header like
this:
>0z5UdZ-0000AA-00-H
>rgunnar 500 500
><rgunnar@???>
>902665909 0
>-ident rgunnar
>-received_protocol local
>-body_linecount 0
>-local
>XX
>1
And the post is rejected by my isp's mailserver. have tried to change
my HOSTNAME, then I get something along this in the log:
1998-08-09 14:34:14 Start queue run: pid=668
1998-08-09 14:34:14 0z5UdZ-0000AA-00 == rgunnar@???
T=local_delivery defe$
1998-08-09 14:34:14 End queue run: pid=668
I have looked in the faq's etc. Looked in the config file. Lot's of
comments there, but it does not tell me so much I'm afraid.
ex:
>Specify your host's canonical name here. If this option is not set, the
^^^^^^^^
Canonaical name ?
# Specify the domain you want to be added to all unqualified addresses
# here. Unqualified addresses are accepted only from local callers by
# default. See the receiver_unqualified_{hosts,nets} options if you want
# to permit unqualified addresses from remote sources. If this option is
# not set, the primary_hostname value is used for qualification.
And this. Could have been greek for my sake :-)
Don't misunderstand, I don't complain.
But is there a faq to be found out there that give some examples in
normal english, to be understand by a newbie. Or is there another
simple fix. There probably is, just that I haven't found it I guess.
