Re: exim - what is missing in my set-up?
Once you do this, email should go wherever you want, and to the
outside world your originating mail will look like it was from
deshmukh <at> escortsmumbai.com (or whatever you have chosen above).
yes. it has strted going to all the addresses now. in fact, i had
changed the exim.conf before i read it. but now, i think, it will show a
proper from address. by the way, in /etc/email-addresses, can i map the
local username to a non-existent e-mail address?? i am trying it.
After you get this working you can take the next step (which I see you
have started on) of running fetchmail or some such client to get your
email from a POP or IMAP server that actually does receive mail for
deshmukh@escortsmumbai.com.
yes. i am on to it already. so will it mark beginning of new threads on
fetrchmail? ;)
It was deshmukh <at> zapho.net if I remember right. The one where you
were not able to send mail to. Maybe it never did get to you.
well, i did get it!
Anyway, good luck! I think you are almost there.
well, almost. i can already use text console to send messages. i am
unable to use mozilla, though.
When I started using
Debian some 18 months ago (after 6 - 7 years of being a dedicated
Slackware user) exim was all new to me and I told myself that someday
I would sit down and figure out what was really going on. Thanks to
you, I've got started :-)
i am only a 'nimitta'!
