This helped at lot. I'm still not getting it going though. Exim is
complaining about the smarthost being localhost.
(I'm using debian-sid, so the file references are based on their exim4
installation)
I have the following in
/etc/exim4/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_remote_smtp:
remote_smtp_over_ssh:
driver = smtp
port = 9025
allow_localhost
and in /etc/exim4/conf.d/router/200_exim4-config_primary
I have:
smarthost:
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp_over_ssh
route_list = * localhost
allow_localhost
In the logs I'm still getting the following:
2003-11-10 22:30:37 Start queue run: pid=5634 -qff
2003-11-10 22:30:37 1AJP3A-0001Ef-OA Unfrozen by forced delivery
2003-11-10 22:30:37 1AJP3A-0001Ef-OA remote host address is the local
host: bork.org
2003-11-10 22:30:37 1AJP3A-0001Ef-OA == andrea@??? R=smarthost
defer (-1): remote host address is the local host
I don't want a local delivery, I want bork.org to be sent to the
smarthost.
Suggestions?
