Hello List,
I have a problem that seems minor but after a terrible day I seem lost.
On my Exim (3.953) config file I have:
# Exim user and those whose uids no delivery should occur.
exim_user = mailnull
exim_group = mail
never_users = root : mailnull
I was running a process as root and I wanted to send the results to my main acct
on a machine where I read my mail.
#do foo | bar | mail wash@??? &
This completed but the mail never came. I then checked and realised that even the
system mails to root never got delivered. So I tried the ultimate push...
beastie# mailq
0m 349 16ZDL4-00012v-00 <root@???>
wash@???
beastie# exim -qff
