Hi,
I noticed an error on
http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/install/exim.shtml
In Exim 4 this should not read
defer_router:
driver = dnslookup
self = defer
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = "* 127.0.0.1 byname"
verify = false
Since route_list is only supported for driver = manualroute AFAIK...
The intruction then goes on and recommends running
exim_tidydb -t 0m /var/spool/exim_incoming retry >/dev/null
1. I do not have a db there yet.
2. Why do I need to do this? Does Exim not maintain this on its own?
3. Why do I not need to do this for the outgoing spool dir?
Thanks,
JP
