I’ll apologize up front for this question as I’m new to Exim and Linux in
general. I’m trying to set up Exim 4.6 on an Ubuntu LAMP server. What I’m
trying to achieve is running a website which will allow users to sign up for
email alerts. Exim will send out the alerts through my Verizon.net account.
I think I’ve figured out most issues though it seems that I’m stuck on
(one?) last detail. I’m trying to send a test email from Exim via my
verizon.net account (via DSL) and have it come back to myself. (When it
comes back in, it will be received by my Windows machine running Outlook as
the Exim server is not set up to receive email.)
Below are the debugging details from Exim. I changed my real email address
to “myemailaddress” and my real password to “mypassword” for confidentiality
purposes.
Can anyone tell me where I’m going wrong? I suspect that at least part of
my problem is that Exim is rewriting the header information so that it looks
like the message is coming from “myemailaddress@server”, which is obviously
incorrect. But I don’t know how to get Exim to stop rewriting it. (It
should be myemailaddress@???.) The odd thing is that according to
Exim’s log, the email is sent without an error, but I never receive any test
emails. I’m logged in to the Ubuntu server as root when creating the test
message.
Thank you in advance.

not directly from a shell command line. Options and/or arguments control
what it does when called. For a list of options, see the Exim documentation.
