Re: [Exim] malformed smtp connection string

Hi Juha, Thanks for answering. I receive mail from the local host
but not from the internet. All I've done to the configuration file is add
my domains to local_domains and relay_to_domain. I also put my ip
in the hostlist. Exim is running from the inetd as /usr/exim/bin/exim -bs.
Debian's exim files are still in /usr/sbin exept exim is linked to
/usr/exim/bin.
I don't have a clue why it would matter but I did have some db issues when
building and wound up using 1.8 bdb as the db. I couldn't build with
sleepycat bdb.3 or 4. because of compile errors.
