Confusing the cases when exim is the client and the server was exactly
my problem.
I had to take out the plain and login authenticators for when exim is
a client, because otherwise the ones for when exim was a server had
the same name. I presume if you have to do both you can just give
them different names, such as plain_client and login_client ?
In any case, many thanks for the assistance -- I really appreciate it.
