exim configuration
well, here is what i discovered wrt questions shyamal had asked.
i am yet to understand the term smtp smart host.
the way i look at it is, i am connected to the net. i have dns servers
resolving hostnames for me. do i still need something else *on some
other machine* to send mails?
anyway, here are answers:
so far as smarthost is concerned, i do not know yet! but frankly, i
think a machine with the net access and dns access should be in a
position to send e-mails independent of other machines (read -
smarthost). of course, correct me if i am wrong
yes. i can do dns lookup from my machine. dig throws back some numbers -
but doesnt report an error. dig -t A returned some nice looking data. so
dns lookup seems not to be a problem. by the way, do not all machines
who have a dns server entry have dns lookup ability?
so, some solution on this?
thanx again
