Re: Configuring exim4 to send emails
Okay, I figured it out. My hostname was my domain. ru...@domain.tld:~$ uname -n domain.tld ru...@domain.tld:~$ hostname domain.tld ru...@domain.ltd:~$ hostname --fqdn domain.tld I changed this to server.domain.tld ru...@domain.ltd:~$ sudo hostname server.domain.tld and then tried sending emails and this fixed it. Afterwards, I changed the file /etc/hostname to reflect the hostname change so it would be reflected on reboots. I hope this helps someone else. -- Rubén O.

Configuring exim4 to send emails
I'm configuring an email to send emails. Emails sent to any domain, apart from my own, are sent okay. I have my emails with Google Apps. Assuming my domain is, example.com. If I send an email from my server to ru...@example.com it doesn't arrive at my Google Apps account, it arrives to my server and I can read it using $ mail. I configured exim the following way: $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config General type of mail configuration: internet site; mail is sent and received directly using SMTP System mail name: domain.tld IP-addresses to listen on for incoming S TP connections: 127.0.0.1:xxx.xxx.xxx.xx Other destinations for which mail is accepted: blank Domains to relay mail for:blank Machines to relay mail for: blank Keep number of DNS-queries minimal (Dial-on-Demand)?: No Delivery method for local mail: mbox format in /var/mail/ Split configuration into small files?: No $ sudo update-exim4.conf $ sudo /etc/init.d/exim4 restart Where xxx.xxx.xxx.xx is my external IP address and example.com is my real domain. Does anyone know how to correctly configure this? -- Rubén O. Varela Rosa rovr...@gmail.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Try pkg-exim4-us...@lists.alioth.debian.org. That's for Debian users with exim4. Also after I run dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config it automatically stops and restarts. BTW if you solve this contact me or post your solution as I'm having the same problem. -- Bob Holtzman Key ID: 8D549279 If you think you're getting free lunch, check the price of the beer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
