Well, you were correct about the authentication being a problem. I fixed
it but still no joy. I ran the swaks testing program with: swaks --auth
--to *...@verizon.net --server outgoing.verizon.net.
This asked for the usual login and returned a long list of things. The
last lines were:
<- 235 2.7.0 LOGIN authentication successful.
-> MAIL FROM:<r...@*mycomputer*.domain>
<** 550 5.1.8 invalid/host-not-in-DNS return address not allowed
-> QUIT
<- 221 2.3.0 Bye received. Goodbye.
I understand that my ISP is trying to validate me as a source but am not
sure what to do to fix it.

I'm not sure whether this is a Drupal web editor problem or a Debian
Exim problem but when automatic messages are sent by my new web site (in
early development) they go nowhere. The pertinent Exim4 log entries are:
I have to recognize that I still fail to understand Exim's full
capabilities and setup (and I promise that I try hard :-P) but let me
comment just some details I've seen in your logs...

Are you using a smart host configuration?
If yes, most probably your ISP (o e-mail provider) is requesting you to
authenticate before sending e-mails (smtp auth). Have you already setup
that information (login/password) in Exim?
