Well, you will have to investigate a little.

Is host_accept_relay set to "127.0.0.1 : ::::1"?

yes. was a goof up on my part not to get it! i think i got confused between 192.168.100.21 and 127.0.0.1!! i have set it right. and hopefully, the mails are going now!

What is your email address in Mozilla set to? If I use my public email
address my exim set up seems to work for Mozilla. Incidentally, I have
never use Mozilla as my email client before, and I truly surprised
that it does not support a native UNIX (sendmail) interface....

i think i should be posting these queries to mozilla newsgroup.

Cheers!

thanx again
