Adding headers to mail coming via exim4

I've got a Debian Etch system running Exim4-daemon-heavy. The system is open to the internet, but the intention is that it will only receive legitimate mail coming from a spam-filtering service, which runs as a proxy ahead of it. (I can't just limit access to those IPs though, because I do have some authorized users who relay via my se...

Specify remote port to use for mail via exim4

I've got a stock Debian Etch system, using Exim4. The domains are mostly local but there are some that are remote. To handle the delivery of remote mail I use the Debian configuration file: /etc/exim4/hubbed_hosts This file lists the domain names, and remote MX machines to deliver to. For example: example.org: mx.example.com ...

Add gmail as smarthost in Debian exim4

Hi, I'd like to know how to setup my exim4 on Debian so that it can use gmail as the smarthost, rather than my ISP. It appears to need TLS to be setup, and of course a gmail userid and password. The "standard" smarthost example that comes with exim4 in Debian doesn't have these. ...

Ubuntu exim4 - Config setup and spam filters

I've recently setup my Ubuntu web server with exim4 so my PHP website applications can send email such as "thank you" and "confirmation" notices. I've got it setup and working such that I can send email to gmail, Yahoo! and my work address. However, my work email gets caught up in our spam filter. I'm new to setting up mail servers so...

Exim Send Frozen Messages Spoof Sender

Hi, I've just changed ISPs and hence SMTP servers. It seems that the old SMTP server accepted empty senders (MAIL FROM:) whereas the new one does not, so I have a load of frozen messages with "no valid sender". Is it possible to send these mails with a manual from address? I've tried -f [email protected] -M with no joy. Thanks, Jamie ...

I have run headfirst into this reject error from exim4: 2010-02-15 01:46:05 SMTP protocol synchronization error (input sent without waiting for greeting): rejected connection from H=ender [192.168.20.49] input="HELO 192.168.20.49\r\n" I have modified my exim4 config to not enforce sync, like so: smtp_enforce_sync='false' acl_smtp_co...

Can I configure exim to use "freeze" as a cheap way to moderate an email address?

We use exim for our family's MTA, and I want to set up a "protected" email address for my son. I thought a quick-and-dirty approach would be to set up all his incoming and outgoing mail to go to my wife and me (with a rewritten reply-to address) and then be frozen, and we could send an email back to exim to unfreeze it. Basically, I wan...
