I suspect I have mis-configured exim4.

While following the documentation and wiki instructions I tested my 
exim4 installation under sarge with exim4 -bV and exim4 -bt <localuser> 
as well as exim4 -bt <remote user> and all worked swimmingly.

However, when I send a mail from <remote user> to <local user> over the 
internet I do not receive any mail on my server. Paniclog includes only 
two lines of information regarding an attempt to start another deamon on 
127.0.0.1 and mainlog states;

Have I mis-configured exim4 so that it fails to deliver mail from remote 
hosts to my host or do I just need to flush the queue?

Many thanks - Jeremiah
