Exim config problems

[Matthew Gregan <kinetik@ihug.co.nz>]

Greetings...

I've tried searching the debian-user list archive already, and found some messages which probably contain the answer I'm after, but it seems that the actual messages aren't available, so I can't read them... (It was working a week ago when I last tried, but not yesterday or today...)

Anyway, this should be an easy problem to solve for somebody. I've played around with eximconfig a bit, but I can't find how to solve the problem.

I'm using exim and fetchmail for my mail delivery. Exim is setup using option 2 in eximconfig (recommended for dialup systems). Everything is working fine, I can receive email and send it fine, except if I try and send email to people on my ISP. The problem is that outgoing emails have their addresses rewritten as @ihug.co.nz, and my mail system classes these emails as local, so it tries to deliver them on my machine and fails.

I thought I'd fixed this by stopping ihug.co.nz being considered local, but then email generated by cronjobs and such were finding their way to my provider (root@ihug.co.nz - since the outgoing mails were having their addresses rewritten).

I think it should be a simple fix to solve this, but I don't know what it is... I've checked howtos but they only seem to cover other MTAs. :-/

Thanks in advance.
