Re: FN-FORUM: receive mail

cheers

installed exim and the webmin module
and figured the command for alternatives to get the MTA to change.

created log files

started exim: service exim start

stats files come up in webmin nicely, Yes it does seem a bit better in that
respect at least than sendmail.

however:
the server still aint accepting mail from outside at all,
and not delivering locally sent mail either - just storing them in the exim
queue

have tried to config it by adding the domain to the exim.conf "domainlist
local_domains and relay_to_domains"

have opened ports 465 and 597 in the firewall

but still no luck

- any thoughts
