Can anyone help me, I am trying to setup exim on Fedora core 4 with a smarthost. I installed the basic version from
# yum install exim*
and then I added the following smarthost router:
remote_smtp_smarthost:
debug_print = "T: remote_smtp_smarthost for $local_part@$domain"
driver = manualroute
domains = *
transport = remote_smtp
route_data = "smtp.server.isp.com"
However I get the following error message:
LOG: MAIN
** root@??? R=remote_smtp_smarthost T=remote_smtp: SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:<root@???>: host mail.westnet.com [216.187.52.7]: 550 5.7.1 root@???... Relaying denied. Proper authentication required.
LOG: MAIN
Frozen (delivery error message)
I added passwd.client to the /etc/exim/ directory and added the following authenticators:
plain_login:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
server_prompts = Username:: : Password::
server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{no}{yes}}
server_condition = ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/exim/passwd.client}{${if eq {$value }{$2}{yes}{no}}}}{no}}
server_set_id = $1
cram_md5_login:
driver = cram_md5
public_name = CRAM-MD5
server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_cipher}{}{no}{yes}}
server_secret = ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/exim/passwd.client}{$value}fail}
server_set_id = $1
But I setill get this error.
Can anyone tell me what I need to do in order to get exim to authenticate with my smarthost
Many thanks de Chris G
