thanks for your reply! What I was quite confused by is why tmda seemed to be working without any hassles on a FreeBSD 4.9 box using qmail, but not working 100 percent on a debian stable box using exim.
tmda is not in the debian stable distribution, thus, I had to go to "apt-get.org" to amend the apt sources-list to install it and python2.2. And debian-stable uses exim3 as its default MTA. I'm not a big fan of exim, but I thought I would use it. it's on the debian box that I can't communicate with other systems using tmda, while on the FreeBSD qmail box this seems to work quite well. cheers, t.
