OK, a wee bit more.
Problem was my queue runner process failed with a fatal libdb-4.2.so
error. I'm not sure its an exim build problem or an environment problem.
I did have trouble building the beast, especially finding a database to
use with it. I'm using Berkeley DB4.2. The relevant bits in the Makefile
are
USE_DB=yes
CFLAGS += -I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/include
DBMLIB=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib/libdb-4.so
LOOKUP_DBM=yes
LOOKUP_LSEARCH=yes
It build and installs fine.
can you help?

Subject: [exim] mail just ends up in the queue
Hi
I'm new to Exim 4 and have been trying to get it working in a test
environment.
I am using the default configuration file and trying some basic tests by
telneting to port 25 and also injecting a message using exim itself.
All mail goes straight to the 'input' queue and never gets delivered.
However if I run 'exim -M' against the message id, then the message is
delivered. I have tried a few modifications to the config such as
sending all non-local queries to another server.
I'm floundering a bit trying to determine why the mail isn't delivered
immediately so I'd appreciate if someone could help.
I built exim myself and specified that EXIM_USER=exim
I am running the daemon using 'exim -bd -q5m' as root, but it switches
to the exim user. I hope this is right!
Note, exim -HUP kills my process dead.
Thanks for you help.
Martin
