Subject: [Exim] Re:struck up in final stages
Hi
My set up is as follows .
My domain  is abc.co in. Most of the users are having mailid as we use pop3
to deliver mails
***@abc.co.in
plus we have some sub domain as
ho.abc.co.in
lmd.abc.co.in
mail.abc.co.in(ccmail users)
allthe respective user id is
***@***.abc.co.in
Uptill now we were using netscape mail server on sun netra m/c now as we are
upgrade we would like to get exim installed as our MTA on a linux m/c
My doubts are
1 .Since domain abc.co.in is our mailserver as well our web server .We do
not want to change our web server so do we have to register another domain
name for our mail server as now the mail server would on a different m/c
(linux 6.0 redhat).
2 .I have installed (exim-3.16 on linux 6.0) this machine is also on the
internet backbone.How do I test that exim.
3 How does pop3 work in exim .Do i have to make muy linux m/c as DNS
4.my exim is installed but how shld i test it does one have to l ink some
directories ?which directry should i go and give the exim commands
/usr/exim/bin   and    /usr/exim/configure are two dir that i had createdI
downloaded exim and untared it in
/home /test/download/exim-3.16
cd exim 3.16 i gave make and make ,install commands and exim got installed
successfully
does one have to specify some thing like domain name etc in eximmon.conf
file
can i make the changes now and where ?
I am struck up !!
waiting for some suggestions
regards
neeraj
