Releasing mail from Quaratine / EXIM

[Kevin J Taylor]

Hello,

Is there more to this command?

/usr/sbin/exim -C /etc/exim_outgoing.conf -t < message

I receive this error message when I did this.

A message that you sent contained no recipient addresses, and therefore
no delivery could be attempted.

The email did go when I dropped this into the queue.
