** Sorry. Sent the email before it was finished ;-)) **
OS is Linux. Exim binds to the given interfaces
perfectly. Let's say:
local_intefaces = 192.168.1.5 : 192.168.1.6
These IP addresses are eth0:1 and eth0:2 on the
linux-box. The problem is that outgoing smtp
processes are still using eth0 as outgoing if
although it isn't configured here. Might be
that I missed something but I have no idea
what it might be.
Thanks,
Sascha
