Re: mail problems



David,
	I am going through a dialup isp and have the following
at the end of my /etc/exim.conf file.  It only rewrites mail destined for
the Internet.

#                      REWRITE CONFIGURATION                         #
######################################################################


# There are no rewriting specifications in this default configuration file.


# This is an example of a useful rewriting rule---it looks up the real
# address of all local users in a file

#
*@myisp.net	"me@myisp.net"	Ffr
#
# End of Exim configuration file
