Package: exim4
Version: 4.67-1
Severity: important

Recent versions including Sid and current stable, testing, return all
outgoing mail with message "Relaying not allowed"

Messages sent to myself have failed this way but usually will go through.

Tried replacing exim4.conf.template, which was old, with the package
version. Error still occurs.

Tried with and without smarthosting, sending using localhost smtp, direct to
the provider (smarthost) and using sendmail. Same.

I am not relaying to/for any other host or network.
