Hi all,
Save me - I have to use Yahoo mail!
I've searched and searched and tried all sorts of
stuff I've found on the net, but I can't seem to
resolve this.
?
I'm trying to send a message to user 'random' on a box
who's hostname is 'random' via:
?
/usr/bin/exim/exim postmaster
From: me
To: random
Subject: test
?
blah blah blah
^D
?
Tailing the mainlog, I see this for each time I try to
send the mail:
?
2004-02-13 12:59:59 1Arhbb-0000AL-8Z <= random@random
U=random P=local S=318
2004-02-13 12:59:59 1Arhbb-0000AL-8Z ** random@random
<postmaster@random>: Unrouteable address
2004-02-13 12:59:59 1Arhbb-0000AN-AJ <= <>
R=1Arhbb-0000AL-8Z U=mail P=local S=1118
2004-02-13 12:59:59 1Arhbb-0000AN-AJ ** random@random:
Unrouteable address
The paniclog is empty.
?
The rejectlog has one line for each failed message:
?
2004-02-13 06:57:55 unqualified recipient rejected:
<random> H=localhost [127.0.0.1]
?
I'm running Debian (Woody), with Exim built from 4.3
source.? exim -bV reports:
?
Exim version 4.30 #1 built 06-Feb-2004 21:41:35
Copyright (c) University of Cambridge 2003
Probably Berkeley DB version 1.8x (native mode)
Support for: iconv()
Lookups: lsearch wildlsearch nwildlsearch dbm dmbnz
Authenticators:
Routers: accept dnslookup ipliteral manualroute
queryprogram redirect
Transports: appendfile autoreply pipe smtp
Fixed never_users: 0
Configuration file is /etc/exim/configure
My /etc/aliases points 'postmaster' to 'root' and
'root' to 'random'.
?
I even went so far as to write a new config file from
scratch so I know what it's doing.? That didn't help,
but I learned a lot.? Here's my current config file:
?
### GENERAL CONFIGURATION
# Unset, Exim will use uname() to get the hostname.
#primary_hostname =
# Domains that are delivered on the local host. @
means local host, thus, if
# we're random.logickal.net, the @ means
anyone@???
domainlist local_domains = @
# Do not relay for any domains (localhost relaying is
handled later...)
domainlist relay_to_domains =
# Used later to permit relaying to/from anyone on this
list.
hostlist relay_from_hosts = 127.0.0.1
# Specified the Access Control List (defined later) to
be used on every SMTP
# receipt.
acl_smtp_rcpt = acl_check_rcpt
# If entered, forces exim to construct email addresses
as
# username@qualified_domain. If unset, email
addresses default to
# username@hostname
#qualify_domain =
#qualify_recipient =
# Uncomment this line if you want exim to recognize
addresses of the format
# user@192.168.2.100. It's rarely used any more,
except by mail abusers.
#allow_domain_literals
# A security measure, this restricts mail delivery to
NOT be run as this
# user. Typically, this is root.
never_users = root
# Uncomment this line to do a reverse DNS lookup on
each host attempting
# to send mail. This is not necessary if you're only
accepting mail from
# localhost.
#host_lookup = *
# Perform IDENT callbacks for incoming SMTP calls. A
timeout value of 0s
# disables the calls. IDENT calls are cheap and can
provide useful info.
rfc1413_hosts = *
rfc1413_query_timeout = 30s
# The following senders and recipients can send and
receive mail via
# unqualified addresses. Basically, these are the
hosts that are allowed
# to send and receive mail using just usernames.

# A list of domains that the percent hack will work
for.
#percent_hack_domains =

### ACL CONFIGURATION
begin acl

above. This ACL is
# used for every recipient of an incoming SMTP
message.

# Put an empty item in the list. It matches mail
that was sent via
# localhost
accept hosts = :
# These are restrictions to email addresses. If an
incoming address
# contains "@%!/|" or dots in odd spots, the mail is
rejected.
# Outgoing address restrictions are lessened, just
in case they're
# valid characters there.
deny domains = +local_domains

deny domains = !+local_domains
local_parts = ^[./|] : ^.*[@%!] : ^.*/\\.\\./

"postmaster" and the
# domain is one listed in "local_domains" above.
Mail to this address
# is never blocked.

# Require the sender address to be verified via a
"bounce" message.
# If it can't, then the message is rejected.
require verify = sender
# Blacklist checking... not sure where this info
comes from.
# deny message = rejected because

# in a black list at

# log_message = found in $dnslist_domain
# dnslists = black.list.example
# Accept an incoming address if its domain is local
and the address
# can be verified. If the domain isn't local, fail
with message
# "unknown user"
accept domains = +local_domains
endpass
message = unknown user
verify = recipient
# Accept an incoming address if it's domain is in
our relay_from_hosts
# list and can be verified
accept hosts = +relay_to_domains
endpass

verify = recipient
# We're neither a local domain, nor a relay domain,
so try to relay
# according to the relay_from_hosts list.
accept hosts = +relay_from_hosts
# Accept messages from authenticated hosts. Since
we haven't
# authenticated any, they all fail.
accept authenticated = *
# No way to route the address according to our rules
so send an error
# message. If this message weren't here, you'd see
"administrative
# prohibition" in the log files.
deny message = relay not permitted
### ROUTER CONFIGURATION
begin routers
# For domain literals, which we don't use.
# domain_literal:
# driver = ipliteral
# domains = !+local_domains
# transport = remote_smtp
# Handle addresses that aren't in the local_domains

# user = mail

pipe_transport = address_pipe
# Look for forwarding data set up by the users. If
allow_filter is
# uncommented and the user's .forward file begins
with "#Exim filter"
# or "#Sieve filter", the contents of the .forward
file are interpreted
# as Exim or Sieve filtering instructions.

file = $home/.forward
no_verify
no_expn

# allow_filter
file_transport = address_file

### TRANSPORT CONFIGURATION
begin transports
# Deliver messages for SMTP with default options.
The remote hosts
# list comes from the router.
remote_smtp:
driver = smtp
# Deliver mail to /var/mail/username. If group and
mode are commented
# out, /var/mail must have its sticky bit set as the
appendfile transport
# runs as the uid and gid of the local user.
local_delivery:
driver = appendfile
file = /var/mail/$local_part
delivery_date_add

# group = mail
# mode = 0660
# Handle deliveries generated by redirection
address_file:
driver = appendfile
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add

# Handle autoreplies generated by users' filters
address_reply:
driver = autoreply
### RETRY RULE
begin retry
# Temporary fails are retried every 15 minutes for 2
hours, then at
# intervals from 1 hour, multiplying by 1.5 until 16
hours have passed,
# then every 6 hours up to 4 days. If it can't be
delivered
# after 4 days, bounce the sucker.
* * F,2h,15m; G,16h,1h,1.5; F,4d,6h
### REWRITE CONFIGURATION
begin rewrite
