Subject: [Exim] It works but is anonymous
Sorry for late testing but it works perfectly (0640 group mail) !!!!
However I tested whith 3.031 ...
someone wrote that the problem was fixed on 3.05 ... Am I wrong ?
Only problem I find is that i would like to have an
X-authorized-user: user
added so one can know what was the user that sent the mail
(Without it you can be sure that no extraneous user can use your
server to relay, but not WHO is the user that actually sent a piece
of mail . It is this that i wish to have !!!)
