Hi Phil,

thank you. You are right, the Problem is the remote server. I tried to deliver to a free webmail account an this works. Maybe my provider changed something the same time I made the update???

Can I go back to my normal provider?

I issued

exim -d+auth -M $msgid 2>&1 | tee trace.log

and here is the result:

I hope this is the relevant part. I didn't paste all.
