I'm currently running Exim 4 on WHM 10.0.0 cPanel 10.0.0-C84
RedHat Enterprise 3 i686 - WHM X v3.1.0

    quote:The exim.conf file contains the following directive and comment:
    # If you want to accept mail addressed to your host's literal IP
address, for
    # example, mail addressed to "user@???", then uncomment the
    # following line, or supply the literal domain(s) as part of
"local_domains"
    # above.


    # local_domains_include_host_literals



When I uncomment the above line and restart exim (service exim restart), I
receive the following error:

    quote:
    Exim configuration error in line 130 of /etc/exim.conf:
    main option "local_domains_include_host_literals" unknown




Does this mean I can't do this?

If so, it's a clear breach of RFC1123 5.2.17:

From:
http://www.freesoft.org/CIE/RFC/1123/102.htm

    quote:5.2.17 Domain Literals: RFC-822 Section 6.2.3


    A mailer MUST be able to accept and parse an Internet domain literal
whose content ("dtext"; see RFC-822) is a dotted- decimal host
address. This satisfies the requirement of Section 2.1 for the case of
mail.


    An SMTP MUST accept and recognize a domain literal for any of its own
IP addresses


How can I manually override this?
