It works fine with the command-line "mail": $ echo foo | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ $ tail /var/log/exim4/mainlog 2008-09-27 12:36:44 1KjXAK-00016c-RT <= [EMAIL PROTECTED] U=neo P=local S=343 2008-09-27 12:36:48 1KjXAK-00016c-RT => [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smarthost T=remote_smtp_smarthost H=gmail-smtp-msa.l.google.com [66.249.91.109] X=TLS1.0:RSA_ARCFOUR_MD5:16 DN="C=US,ST=California,L=Mountain View,O=Google Inc,CN=smtp.gmail.com" 2008-09-27 12:36:48 1KjXAK-00016c-RT Completed ^C $ I don't know whether I can set an SSL SMTP server in devscripts.conf as BTS_SMTP_HOST.
