I am running exim 3.01 on Solaris 2.7. I am confronted to exactly the
same problem, I don't want the -out addresses revealed to the
outside, much less leave them open to spam. I did configure the nice
trick from the majordomo-exim web page. Everything works, except the
condition. Then I did the debug_print thing. Interestingly (bud sadly)
received_protocol as well as sender_ident were both empty. I could not
yet find out why both variables are empty. Also, I found out that for
some drivers where the I need the variable $home, this one also is
empty, whereas reading the doc it should not. Does anybody else have
similar problems?
Thanks for any help on the subject, I am rather reluctant to go
public with my -out addresses open.
