Hi, Andreas,
Hopefully I did this correctly.
I tried running exim with -bd -d+all. I started it then ran it with the
option -d+all -bP +local_domains and redirected stderr to files for both.
Neither debug outputs showed any attempt to make a call to MySQL I had
the MySQL General log running at the same time - it showed no calls to
the database.
As this is on a local machine, I don't have an MX entry for it in the
DNS, so I can't try to send an email to it. The output from the -bP
option still shows the mysql command, not the results of execution.
I just don't know how to determine if the domain list is working or not.
Any other ideas?
Thanks.
Jerry
