Hi Peter
Thanks for reply.
I kinda realised that just after mailing the list so i removed
hash......it got rid of the error msg and exim starts up ok
(see new config below)
-----------------------------------------------
begin acl
# This access control list is used for every RCPT command in an incoming
# SMTP message. The tests are run in order until the address is either
# accepted or denied.
#acl_check_rcpt:
acl_check_rcpt:
accept domains = +local_domains : +relay_domains
accept hosts = +relay_hosts
-------------------------------------------------------------------
..but with this config, no mails seem to be accepted. All I get is when
i tail exim_mainlog is
2004-11-12 10:33:45 unknown named domain list "+relay_domains"
2004-11-12 10:33:47 unknown named domain list "+relay_domains"
2004-11-12 10:33:48 unknown named domain list "+relay_domains"
2004-11-12 10:33:50 unknown named domain list "+relay_domains"
If i do a manual telnet to port 25 and try and send myself a mail I get,
root@artemis # telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
