Hi G W,
from my point of view (a debian sarge user), the acl config seems to be
correct. It means in other words:
"allow relaying from all hosts, that have successfully authenticated
themselves".
If you get a "relay not permitted", then the authentication has failed!
using debian sarge you should do the following:
1. check your config in /etc/exim4/conf.d/auth/30_exim4-config_examples
you should enable a authentication type there like:
plain_server:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
server_condition = "${if
crypteq{$3}{${extract{1}{:}{${lookup{$2}lsearch{CONFDIR/passwd}{$value}{*:*}
}}}}{1}{0}}"
server_set_id = $2
server_prompts = :
(warning: this is just an example, that allows plain text authentication)
2. check your update-exim4.conf.conf:
you have to add your domain to
dc_other_hostnames='mydomain.tld'
3. check if you have added your users to debian
you must add the users to "/etc/exim4/passwd" (see 1.)
to do this you can use the debian script:
"/usr/share/doc/exim4-base/examples/exim-adduser"
that comes with the exim package
4. update your config:
run "update-exim4.conf" as root
5. reload the configutation
run /etc/init.d/exim4 reload"
Then try again to relay mails and report if you had success or not

Betreff: [exim] authenticate * not work
Hi all,
i'm running exim4 on sarge and having a problem that my clients are able to
authenticate themselves but not allow to send mail via exim (relay).
i got "relay not permitted" from log.
/etc/exim4/conf.d/acl/30
===================
accept hosts = +relay_from_hosts
accept authenticated = *
deny message = relay not permitted
my current workaround is manually add the clients IPs to "relay_from_hosts"
every time my client cannot relay thru the server.
i know there should be more elegant solutions. :-) pls help.
thx in advance
