Ok so now I am even more frustrated I managed to get exim to run the ols helo check But it stopped me from sending mail from my own server
Clearly my PC client cant have a verified HELO So how do I make the list ignore authenticated hosts ?

You could use it like this: # # drop !authenticated = * # hosts = !+relay_from_hosts # !acl = acl_check_helo_fast # So where do I put these commands? I think I am just not quite getting it Is there an idiots guide or step by step how-to that I can read that will help me get to grips with it Sorry for such a lame question, I am sure you guys have better things to be doing.
