Subject: [exim] exim -bt not working
Hi All,

When I try to see if an email can be reached through the command 'exim
-bt "foo@???" ' I keep getting an error saying: "foo@???
cannot be resolved at this time: Temporary internal error"

I think what is going on is a routing issue which I'm a little bit lost
here since this is the first time that I'm building an email server.

Whenever I try to send emails through "exim -v foo@???" my
messages just keep stuck in /var/spool/exim.in/input and it never goes
anywhere as well.

When I check my logs in /var/spool/exim/log/ this is what I get for each
log:

mainlog:

I think that this could be a routing issue or a permission issue in my
config files. Has anyone had similar issues like mine ? Thanks in advance!
