Hi Steven

thank you for answer my question.

I've checked that exim is the only one MTA. Of course it doesn't run
because the error doesn't allow the program runs. The exactly error i
get is this:

Starting MTA: 2005-07-16 15:20:25 Exim configuration error:
TCP port "smtp" not found


I have published a copy of muy actual exim4.conf file in my web site
just to provide a source of what was running before and that actually
seems not to be valid: http://www.surestorm.com/TMPFLDR/exim4.conf

BTW the server is not running :(

TIA,
BR,

jonathan
