Hi everybody, I have this little issue with exim. My setup is that I'm retrieving mail from several POP accounts (for one local user) with fetchmail, which hands off to exim. Currently I have exim filtering and delivering (maybe I'll get into procmail someday soon, but not yet). Now, my mail seems to be coming and going... mostly happily. But I keep seeing this in eximon (which is just showing me exim's mainlog, AFAIK):
22:46:08 SMTP command timeout on connection from miguel (localhost) [127.0.0.1]
22:46:22 unqualified recipient rejected: <fetchmail> H=miguel (localhost) [127.0.0.1]
U=fetchmail
This has just started happening this evening... it may coincide with a new
rule I put in my .forward file, but that's just a filter to save incoming
mail to different mboxes in my ~/Mail directory (basically a clone of the
rule that's been working fine for this list) so I don't see how that change
would result in this complaint... ?
Now, I'm sure that somewhere in exim's voluminous heap of documentation,
there's a bit that tells me what this means. But if someone can either see
right off what would be causing this, or point me at the appropriate *part*
of the, ahem, 'fine' manual... I'd be grateful.
Thanks,
-Chris
