Re: EXIM Help



Well, exim is supposed to know when the local host is sending it mail and
is supposed to qualify it with the local domain without being told to. I
kind of shotgunned the problem by giving those wildcards and yes, the
correct thing to do is to try to find out why exim is not recognizing the
session with fetchmail as local and correct it. 

I am guessing there is some misconfiguration somewhere giving exim or
fetchmail an incorrect idea of what the local hostname is.
