Ok I think I found my problem, but I'm still a bit stumped by it. I ran
exim with -d -bv and I found this:
failed to expand condition "${if eq
{}{${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/webs/${domain}/etc/passwd}}}{no}{yes}}"
for exim_localuser router: failed to open /webs/testmail.com/etc/passwd
for linear search: Permission denied (euid=501 egid=501)
exim_localuser router skipped: condition failure
Now for both the user and group, 501 is exim. I've set the etc directory
and the passwd file to exim:exim and it's still giving me that error.
The etc directory has the permissions of 750 and the passwd file is 750
also...anyone got an idea on what I'm missing and/or doing wrong?
TIA
