[Pkg-exim4-users] how to set up exim4 to use my FQDN?

[Dermot Paikkos]

It reads like you have not set the host name correctly. They want the 
full host name with the domain.  

If I am right then the "visiblename" is what you need to edit. I have 
this in my conf.

MAIN_visiblename = smtp.yourdomain.info

Good luck,
Dp.
