Re: [exim] mail to myself is rejected

considered that the cause of the problem was firewalling or interception
of my messages, but that is what it appears to be, so it is not a
problem with exim.

I hadn't considered that I would need to, but when I searched around it
looks like I also need to register my website as well as my blog. I'm
still looking for where and how I would do that.

I will consider your suggestion.

That's certainly not my intention.
