Bob, you're not really giving much sensible information there :-).
When you say "outside" do you mean that the machine will accept SMTP
connections from the localhost and/or the LAN, but not the Internet?
The "Exim isn a Mail Transfer Agent" message isn't an "SMTP message" but
what you see if you type e.g. 'exim' in a command shell.
How did you configure Exim 4.30 on the new machine?
