Hi again.

Its not - I've tested it on three different mail clients - on one I setup a
user name and on two of them I didn't (certain clients i.e. outlook - force
you to declare a username when you set up an account). When a user name is
not specified exim produces:

><haven@???>

as opposed to:
>"haven" <haven@???>

when a user name is specified to use. I doubt this is going to have any
adverse affect since both exhibit the same delivery problems.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I repeated the process of attempting several more deliveries - all with the
same results. I thought it might be better if I just posted up the whole of
the debug output rather than the bits I 'think' are important. Maybe
someone will spot something I missed or didn't realise was a problem.
People on this list will soon know my mail system better than I do ;P

Here's the full -d -M debug output (appologies for the increasing size of
these messages) - I repeated the process (sent a mail from haven to
simon.alman) with predictable results:
