Excellent. Thanks Andre. Surprisingly exim refused to relay mail to
devil.postfix.ca from your machine(leela.home.grueneberg.de or IPv6
address 2001:638:801:1000::10) because it has an AAAA record and no A
record(hence no reverse lookup). This is wrong on exim's part....or not?

The log says...

H=(www.pseudonym.org) [195.226.161.194] (failed to find host name from
