hi @ll,
i've got fetchmail working with exim to get mail from my isp. then my imapd
feeds the mail from var/mail/$user to ~user/INBOX.
it is all working fine, however if i recieve several messages at once, exim
pauses do deliver the mail, starting again later. but the timeout for my inet-
connection is set to one minute, so eventually when exim tries to deliver the
mail, the connection is down and dns lookups fail. since all sender
verification is already done (by my isp), and exim will never recieve mail
directly, i figured i could turn off dns lookup completely (for senders of
course).
HOW ??
roaming through the faq and archives i wasn't able to figure it out by myself.
below you wil find a copy of my exim.conf (stripped #'s)
