multiple smart hosts
First of all: Yes, I know this is not the exim4 mailing list ;-) Here my question: How do you setup exim4 with multiple smart hosts for mutt? The idea was to create a folder-hook like... folder-hook anextrafolder 'my_hdr From: Name1 Name2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]' ...to change the from-adress when sending a mail from inside a certain folder. That works nice. The real problem is a rewrite-config that makes exim4 choose a certain smart host depeding on the from-address. There is a walkthrough for this problem -- it's about 5 pages long. There has to be a better way. Some ideas? -- Benjamin Eckenfels OpenPGP Key id: CF56E489 Key fingerprint = 386D CBE1 0833 4C12 2871 F51E 839D 18EF CF56 E489 Public Key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0xCF56E489 signature.asc Description: Digital signature

mutt?
Huh?
The idea was to create a folder-hook like...
folder-hook anextrafolder 'my_hdr From: Name1 Name2
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
...to change the from-adress when sending a mail from inside a
certain folder. That works nice. The real problem is a rewrite-config
that makes exim4 choose a certain smart host depeding on the
from-address.
Again, why? What are you trying to achieve and what is the problem?
There is a walkthrough for this problem -- it's about 5
pages long. There has to be a better way.
Some ideas?
Nope. Byt maybe you can set some special header in the folder hook; a
header that tells Exim which smart host to use. And what do you mean by
smart host? A manualroute router or something else? I really think
you should reveal your config.

Re: multiple smart hosts
Here my question: How do you setup exim4 with multiple smart hosts for mutt? The idea was to create a folder-hook like... I think this is no mutt issue. I use eisfair and the mail package for it uses exim as SMTP-server. I can configure multiple smarthosts and exim decides by from adress over which smarthost is to be send.

Thanks, msmtp seems to be exactly what I was looking for.

Re: Solved: Re: multiple smart hosts
I've recently started using mutt's builtin smtp. I run a sendmail daemon locally, but I don't always want to submit to local SMTP. I use this config: send2-hook . 'set smtp_url=smtp://localhost/' send2-hook '~f [EMAIL PROTECTED]' 'set smtp_url=smtp://example1.org/' send2-hook '~f [EMAIL PROTECTED]' 'set smtp_url=smtp://example2.org/' ... which might be a useful alternative to exim or msmtp. (Replace 'localhost' with any smtp server you have posting access to.) -- -D.[EMAIL PROTECTED]NSITUniversity of Chicago

You know, it's not the first time I confuse 1.5 and 1.6 with 1.6/1.7. (ping Rado). I apologize, I meant that I would upgrade to 1.5.16, which is closer to the future 1.6. I have a serious mental bug here, the 1.6 release should hopefully solve it. -- redondos signature.asc Description: Digital signature
