The problem most likely is that you fail to specify -enough- parameters to make it clear to Exim what you want. For example, by doing: $ exim4 -odq <recipient emailaddress> Exim goes into 'accepting a message'-mode, and does exactly what you want. But, Exim expects a message on standard input. Either through a pipe or you typing the text directly into Exim on STDIN. The message should conform to some standards, so it should have at least have From: and a To: line. If you choose to type the message on STDIN instead of piping a premade text through Exim, you can 'end' the message by pressing Control-D on an empty line.
