It often (in my experience anyway, I'm learning exim kinda slowly) points to some kind of misconfiguration in the exim configuration. A message is frozen when it cannot be delivered to the destination, and cannot be returned to the sender. You probably want to determine if there is something common amongst all those frozen messages. Cheers! Shyamal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Exim error: transport flatfile_aliases: cannot find transport driverredirect
Hi All,
I'm trying to get the following working on exim. I picked the following
config from an exim 4 server which works. The idea is to allow a file with
the format
domain.com: username
to map domains to users. However I put the following config in. Restarted
exim and got
transport flatfile_aliases: cannot find transport driver redirect in
line 289
flatfile_aliases:
driver = redirect
allow_defer
allow_fail
data = ${lookup{$local_part@$domain}lsearch*{/etc/exim/virtual}}
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe
require_files = /etc/exim/virtual
I that that I might of put it in the wrong section (orignally put it in
the directors config which didn't work) so I moved it to the Transports
section. Still no luck. Have I done something stupid?
Cheers

Re: exim error: What does it mean?
If there are any mailing list and exim experts out there I would appreciate a second set of eyeballs on what I've done. Quoting Paul Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] on Mon, Jun 24 07:55: What does this mean? # /usr/sbin/exim -v -M 17MVAm-0002nz-00 delivering message 17MVAm-0002nz-00 LOG: 0 MAIN PANIC DIE Neither the system_aliases director nor the address_pipe transport set a uid for local delivery of | /usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue [EMAIL PROTECTED] From a google search I managed to piece together something that worked. First, I moved all of the sympa specific aliases into a separate aliases file (/etc/aliases.sympa). Then I added the following to exim's 'TRANSPORTS CONFIGURATION' section: - Begin TRANSPORTS CONFIGURATION - sympa_list_pipe: driver = pipe user = sympa group = sympa return_fail_output - End TRANSPORTS CONFIGURATION - And this to exim's 'DIRECTORS CONFIGURATION' section: - Begin DIRECTORS CONFIGURATION - sympa_lists: driver = aliasfile search_type = lsearch file = /etc/aliases.sympa pipe_transport = sympa_list_pipe - End DIRECTORS CONFIGURATION - I put the above after the system_aliases: and before the userforward: sections. I had to take the domain part out of the aliases (that is, the part to the left of the colon) in /etc/aliases.sympa in order to get it to work. I believe there is an option in the exim config that will allow domains in the alias file but I don't know what it is. My /etc/aliases.sympa looks like this: - Begin aliases.sympa - #-- SYMPA begin ## Aliases used for the sympa mailing-list manager sympa: | /usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue sympa sympa-request: postmaster sympa-owner: postmaster listmaster: postmaster #-- SYMPA end #- [EMAIL PROTECTED] sympa-test: | /usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue [EMAIL PROTECTED] sympa-test-request: | /usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue [EMAIL PROTECTED] sympa-test-owner: | /usr/lib/sympa/bin/bouncequeue sympa-test sympa-test-unsubscribe: | /usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue [EMAIL PROTECTED] sympa-test-subscribe: | /usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue [EMAIL PROTECTED] # - End aliases.sympa - Hope this helps, Omen -- The first myth of management is that it exists. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

They go to the MAIL FROM: address (sometimes called the envelope sender). Picture it this way: you take out a sheet of paper and write a letter on it. At the top of it you write that is is from you, but a response should be sent to your other address. Now you take that paper, fold it, and put it in an envelope. On the envelope you put the recipients address and your return address. If there is a problem, is the post office going to open the envelope and see that you want responses sent to a different address? The correct solution is to put the proper return address on the envelope. For email this means setting the right envelope sender. What is currently being set as the envelope sender (given in the MAIL FROM: SMTP command)? What do you want it to be? -D -- In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.

Exim Error: Sender Domain must Exist
Hi: I am using Debian Potato from home and connect by modem to my university network using exim. The connection uses DHCP. My machine is named sebastian.

My machine is interpreted as [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is clearly not recognized as an legitimate machine.

Re: Exim error? [FW: Mail delivery failed:]
No, the problem was with procmail. There was no /home/escarlata/Mail/log/ directory, so that was it. Thank you for your interest. El jue, 02 de dic de 1999, a las 08:30:03 -0600, [EMAIL PROTECTED] dijo: Pardon me for possible stupidity... Why is the email addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Localhost is a special hostname that is for the loopback address of 127.0.0.1, maybe that could be contributing to your problem. Is the escarlata user defined on your mailserver @ciberia.es? If not I could see it rejecting the address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] which will be locally resolved on your mailserver.

Exim error message
I had a look in my /var/log/exim/paniclog and noticed the following line: 1999-05-30 18:56:10 socket bind() to port 25 for address (any) failed: Address already in use: daemon abandoned Any idea what it means? I have lots of these messages in the exim mainlog too. Apart from this all is well! Mail is getting sent and received (using fetchmail == exim) from my IP's POP server.

I looked in /etc/init.d and found the expected 'exim' file which starts the exim daemon if it hasn't been started by /etc/inetd.conf (at least that's my understanding). I noticed, however, that there was another unexpected file, 'sendmail' which was attempting to start a sendmail daemon. The date of the file was well before the date when I installed exim so I assume it was a leftover. Anyway I have backed-up and deleted this file and so far the mail system is still working. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. -- Phillip Deackes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian Linux (Potato)
