Situation: a webserver with freebsd 4.10 & exim 4.43. When a
application, running on the server, sends a mail to me they are gone in
a "big black hole". example. I run a forum (phpbb). User can registrade
and I receive a notification mail to allow / disallow the new user. The
notification mail is gone. It works fine with the previous versions of
exim. That is what I find in the /var/log/maillog:

1. myserver.net is fake.
2. phpbb is one of the many local running stuff that is installed. I
have it also with phpnuke, postnuke, mamboserver, typo3, directadmin, etc...
