Dear List members, I have a problem with my Exim configuration. I currently have my home mail-router running Exim 4.50 and my remote server running Exim 4.62. My home mail-router receives mail from my home-network, forwards it (TLS encrypted, Auth-Plaintext) to my remote server (because my home- box has a dial-up IP which many providers reject), and my remote server delivers the mail then.
As I wanted to send a somewhat bigger mail I got the following problem (maillog on my home-machine): 2006-07-02 21:32:20 1Fx7g3-0007d8-Q5 <= [EMAIL PROTECTED] H=localhost [127.0.0.1] P=esmtp S=1353255 id=047ECBE9- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-07-02 21:37:22 1Fx7g3-0007d8-Q5 SMTP timeout while connected to mail.freddym.org [62.75.171.23] after sending data block (8189 bytes written): Connection timed out 2006-07-02 21:37:22 1Fx7g3-0007d8-Q5 == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smarthost T=remote_smtp_smarthost defer (110): Connection timed out: SMTP timeout while connected to mail.freddym.org [62.75.171.23] after sending data block (8189 bytes written) The corresponding entry in the logfiles of my remote servermachine looks like: 2006-07-02 21:37:22 SMTP data timeout (message abandoned) on connection from (server.freddym.org) [84.151.96.216] F=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> When I triggered a redelivery be entering exim -qff, I got the following message: 2006-07-02 21:46:27 Start queue run: pid=29391 -qff 2006-07-02 21:52:46 1Fx7g3-0007d8-Q5 TLS send error on connection to mail.freddym.org [62.75.171.23]: Error in the push function. 2006-07-02 21:52:46 1Fx7g3-0007d8-Q5 mail.freddym.org [62.75.171.23]: Broken pipe 2006-07-02 21:52:46 1Fx7g3-0007d8-Q5 == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smarthost T=remote_smtp_smarthost defer (32): Broken pipe: mail.freddym.org [62.75.171.23] The corresponding entry in the logfile of my remote machine looks the same like the previous one. On successful messages (not the mail I was talking about previously, this one is still in my mailq, undelivered), I see the following entry in the logfile: 2006-07-02 21:52:47 1Fx7lf-0007dL-DI => [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smarthost T=remote_smtp_smarthost H=mail.freddym.org [62.75.171.23] X=TLS-1.0:RSA_AES_256_CBC_SHA:32 2006-07-02 21:52:47 1Fx7lf-0007dL-DI Completed When I triggered a redelivery (-qff) again, I got the same problem as the first time. The mail has a size of 1.3MB, but delivering already stops after 8189 bytes (according to the logs), so this should not be the problem. Most of the mails do not have that problem, I suspect larger mails have that problem. My connection is not a really slow modem line, but a 1 MBit ADSL line, which should be enough for that purpose?! I am really stuck on this point - perhaps someone can give me a hint where to tweak on - would be GREAT! Thanks in advance and best regards, Freddy Meerwaldt -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
