Hello Nigel,

my mm_cfg.py contains:
...
# --------added: http://www.exim.org/howto/mailman21.html#exconf
MTA = None
MTP_MAX_RCPTS = 50
SMTP_MAX_SESSIONS_PER_CONNECTION = 30
#---------------------------------------------------------------


and editing the MTA entry to:
MTA = 'None'

  and e.g. in /etc/aliases:
  ## support Mailingliste
support:              "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post support"
....


there´s the same error/message like before.








You need to change the settings in mm_cfg.py - specifically
MTA = 'None'
or
MTA = 'Manual'

Other settings may persuade it to fiddle with alias files...

     Nigel.

Greetings

One of my clients wants to use eTicket as a ticketing system
(http://eticket.sourceforge.net/) and he wants to route his
support@domain to an external perl script
/var/www/domain/support/cgi-bin/automail.pl

This is the instructions for Sendmail but I have no idea howto do
the same thing in Exim and have no idea where to begin. Any ideas,
pointers and or examples would be greatly appreciated :

<Instructions>
Setting up aliases in cPanel:
Add a forwarding rule for each email in each of the setup categories
to automail.pl. For example forward support@??? to
"|/path/to/automail.pl" (Without the quotes)

Setting up aliases with qmail:
Create/Edit your .qmail-* for the domain you wish to forward and add a
forwarding rule to automail.pl For example for support@???
.qmail-support file should contain |/path/to/automail.pl.

Setting up aliases for sendmail:
Modify your aliases file by adding support: root,
|/path/to/automail.pl and run newaliases
</Instructions>

If there is any info I can provide, please let me know.

Thanx again for helping me get this working for Exim and saving me
from looking like an idiot.

Thank You
Michael
