As I read his post, he is sending the right name on his EHLO. He
wants to know how to get exim to use the matching interface for
outgoing connections.

| Hello,
|
| A quick problem with how my box identifies itself to remote servers
| (wrong).
From the example given, you mean it is not connecting with the source
IP address you intended.
| Here is a quick example.
|
| 192.111.111.1 - hub.mydomain.com (1st ip on box)
| 192.111.111.2 - smtp.mydomain.com (exim)
|
| Exim is configured to listen on 192.111.111.2 with:
|
| local_interfaces = 192.111.111.2 : 127.0.0.1
|
| Watching the mailog on a remote server, my server still presents itself
| as hub.mydomain.com, yet I elho smtp.mydomain.com. This gives the
| warning:
|
| * Remote host 192.111.111.1 (hub.mydomain.com) incorrectly presented
| itself as smtp.mydomain.com. *
Jason, you need to add an "interface" option to your smtp transport
to get it to use the 192.111.111.2 interface for outgoing email.
"local_interfaces" only controls listening for incoming connections.
