I am running Exim 4.77 on FreeBSD 8.x I decided to create a special purpose transport, viz:
587_remote_smtp: driver = smtp port = 587 It appears that Exim doesn't like it: gw# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/exim restart Stopping exim. Starting exim. 2012-03-14 15:45:49 Exim configuration error in line 1385 of /usr/local/etc/exim/configure: option setting expected: 587_remote_smtp: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/exim: WARNING: failed to start exim This behaviour is reproduceable as long as you start a transport name with a digit. However, if I a transport name begins with an alphabet character instead of a numeral, then Exim is okay with it. Is this by design?? I couldn't find anything in spec.txt that clarifies this behaviour. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler. -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
