Raymond, I'm sorry, you're correct. If you name the exim4 config /etc/exim4/exim4.conf, the stock debian init.d script will use that. Thanks everyone!

And I don't think that the stock Debian init.d script will start exim4 with a config file @ /etc/exim4/exim4.conf OOTB. ~Noah On Feb 3, 2013, at 4:35 PM, "Jeremy McSpadden" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: It's a config file .

I found the github configs rejected all messages because the SPF section is incomplete.

I am using the exim4-daemon-heavy package. However, I have a few questions: 1. If I were to run both the exim.conf and the exim_out.conf (provided by Andrew), it seems to me that they are trying to both bind to the same port 25 on localhost. Am I missing something? This is how I'm starting the daemon for testing: /usr/sbin/exim4 -bd -q30m -C /etc/exim4/exim.conf /usr/sbin/exim4 -bd -q30m -C /etc/exim4/exim_out.conf I think I solved the problem by adding local_interfaces to both configs and assigning two ip addresses to the host. Is that bad? Also, I guess my general question is if there is a way I'm supposed to start exim4 with both configs at the same time? Also, does anyone have a modified debian/ubuntu init.d script to contribute? OK, I think I solved my first problem here. I thinking that exim.conf is the service that runs, and Mailscanner will call exim_out.conf. Therefore, I don't have a port binding issue.
