Pine and smail not cooperating



Since I upgraded to Debian 2.0, I cannot use pine to send messages
other than local messages.  As soon as I try to do it, I get an error
message about pine deferring the message.

I have tried exim.  Pine does not have problems to deliver the
outbound messages to exim. My problem there is that I cannot get exim
to deliver any mail whether outbound or local mail.  I do not
understand the configuration of exim.

I have a dialup ppp connection with my ISP.  In the past I have used
smail and pine with Debian 1.3.1 because smail was the only mail-agent
I could get configured.  With Debian 2.0 however, it took me a long
time to get smail to work in a way.  Now pine would not cooperate...

Some information from my .pinerc:

personal-name=Johann Spies
user-domain=
smtp-server=localhost
nntp-server=Johann
feature-list=	compose-rejects-unqualified-addrs,
	enable-bounce-cmd,
	enable-unix-pipe-cmd,
	enable-verbose-smtp-posting,
	enable-background-sending
sendmail-path=/usr/sbin/sendmail -oem -t -oi -odb

Can somebody help me please

Johann
