Hi All,
I can connect to my IMAPS server remotely to read my home email, but some
places block port 25 outbound so I can't connect to my home SMTP server to relay
email sent from that account. If I could get exim to
listen on an unblocked port I could point Outlook at that port and all would be
well – I could then send email from anywhere.
Using dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config allows me to
specify which interfaces to listen on - I usually leave it blank to listen on
all of them, but I guess I need to put any additional ports in here. Can anyone
tell me the syntax for this? It says "Please enter a semicolon-separated
list of IP addresses". So if my current setup (ie.
leaving it blank) is effectively the same as
127.0.0.1;192.168.1.1;86.2.3.4
I would expect to just add the additional port like this:
127.0.0.1;192.168.1.1;86.2.3.4;86.2.3.4:2567
but that doesn't work - exim
says "malformed IP address 86.2.3.4:2567 in local_interfaces"
so that's not how to do it.
Can anybody help me add an extra port for exim to
listen on my external interface?
Many thanks,
Chris
