Got it!

Fred, thanks for your help.

Right basically, I put an IP address in square brackets for my
primary_hostname in /etc/exim4.conf.template

It now seems to work ok.

Doesn't it? Maybe you need to be more specific about what the

That makes no sense. You had no problem (other than the delay) using
@shinyblue.net sender and recipient addresses before, right?
Changing primary_hostname shouldn't affect that.

What did you set primary_hostname to? If you set it to
shinyblue.net, re-read my earlier post.
