Subject: [exim] A serious trouble with SMTP authentification
Hello,

I don't know what's wrong with my exim configuration but no user can
send e-mails outside using SMTP authentication. Exim does some terrible
things and I cannot understand why. The situation is well described
here: http://silverwraith.com/pipermail/vexim/2006-December/003804.html

Exim configuration can be downloaded here:

I have found this answer:
http://www.exim.org/mail-archives/exim-users/Week-of-Mon-20060327/msg00023.html
however there are few troubles with this suggestion:

I have to disable " control       = submission" from both
    accept  hosts         = +relay_from_hosts
and
    accept  authenticated = *


or I still get "test@??? from e-mails sent via relay 
hosts with SMTP authentication turned on. Temporarily I have set both 
'accept's to "control       = submission/sender_retain" and it works 
right. Is it safe and OK in my situation?


Thanks in advance!
