Onderwerp: Re: [exim] Mails are not sent
I am attaching my exim configuration file.

There is a line that shows:

domainlist relay_domains = lsearch;/opt/exim/localdomains :
lsearch;/opt/exim/secondarymx

I am wondering if this is the file that affects this behavior. When I saw
/opt/exim/localdomains file, this is listed:


vps-1128921-x.dattaweb.com
gestionproyectos.cl
v-track.cl
vtrack.cl
dias.cl
gestionx.cl
marvas.cl
commerce.gestionx.cl
depasa.cl
desytec.cl
desytec.cn
desytec.com.cn
desytec.com

As you read in my original mail, the address that is blackholed, belongs to
desytec.com domain. Can I safely remove "desytec.com" line in above file to
solve this problem?

Best regards,
Jaime

There is something important about Exim here that may not be clear.
Unlike some other mailers, Exim does not have any hard-coded behavior for
routing email. How it treats addresses is entirely and completely specified
by the local configuration file. As a result, fixing routing problems such
as what you're experiencing intrinsically requires examining the specific
configuration file, determining where the routing decision is being made
(and why), and changing it.

So the answer to your question of 'is it possible to configure Exim to
avoid this' is that it absolutely is, but no one can tell you how to do it
because how to do it depends entirely on how your config files specify your
mail routing.

(One way to think of this is that part of Exim's configuration is basically
a programming language that describes how to route email addresses. Each
specific Exim configuration file is in part a program written in this
language that implements your specific mail routing.)
