Sorry to jump into this, but the statement Mr. Andreas has responded
to seems weird to me, if anyone ever did that. Why? It says
1. Exim 4.34 does not support submission mode (it was added in 4.40).
2. However, adding "control=submission" to an ACL in the 4.34 config
file ...
Now I am wondering: If you know so well that submission support mode
is only a feature of 4.40 and above, why try it in 4.34??? Are we
expecting Philip to address that or what is the point? ;)
