Re: [Exim] local_domains not recognised

say that I'm worried about this.

exim -bd -d9 -C myconfig

shows that it binds to the port etc; and the log shows the
same.
(
[...]
daemon running with uid=26 gid=6 euid=26 egid=6
listening on port 25...
)

however; when I    echo "test" |mail postmaster@???
I see NOTHING whatsoever in the -d9 window. Absolutely nothing.
In the log though, I see this:

2002-11-06 09:43:12 189KqG-0000rE-00 ==
postmaster@???
R=lookuphost defer (-1): remote host address is the local host

If I run an exim -bt -d9 postmaster@??? ; it tells
me that
the mail was delivered successfully

postmaster@???
deliver to postmaster@???
router = amavis_router, transport = amavis
search_tidyup called

( I use amavis to scan mails. )

This is true; if I sent a mail from outside. But whenever something
from
the server sends a mail (to itself) it doesnt work; and freezes the
mail.
(note this is not just to chaos.evolve.za.net but to any host on the
mail server)

Have I set something up wrong?


Thanks all
Dave

: exim -d (or -d9 for Exim 3) is your friend. It clearly doesn't
think the
: right domains are local.
