Subject: [exim] mail delivered, clients don't see it
Hello,

Hope someone can help me. I am running Exim 4.62 under cygwin on XP. I have
successfully set up most options but there is one thing that I cannot do and hope you can
give me a hint. Namely, I have a router for the mail delivery like this (I am using maildir):

local_delivery:
driver = appendfile
# file = /var/spool/mail/$local_part
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
# group = mail
initgroups = no
mode = 0666
mode_fail_narrower = no
check_group = no
check_owner = no
directory=${home}/Mail/Maildir

When I open the /mail/maildir on the hard drive I can see all my messages sent to a user.
However, when I connect with a client and authenticate I am told I have no new mail.

I guess this is a question of telling inetd where the mail is stored but since I have practically
no experience with *nix systems I do not know how to do that. Can anyone help me?

Many thanks in advance!
