Hi all,

I have no experience in configuring MTA. I've got lost with following requirement.

I need to configure exim (particularly exim4 on Debian Lenny) to listen on localhost port (25) and forward received messages. The client is an application written in Ruby which uses ActionMailer.

I'm able to send messages using "exim" from command line. I can see that a connection is made to localhost:25 from the application (tcpdump). However no mail is delivered to the destination (no connection established to isp's mail server).

update-exim4.conf.conf:
dc_eximconfig_configtype='internet'
dc_other_hostnames='example.com'
dc_local_interfaces='127.0.0.1'
dc_readhost='example'
dc_relay_domains='example.com'
dc_minimaldns='false'
dc_relay_nets=''
dc_smarthost='mail.isp.com'
CFILEMODE='644'
dc_use_split_config='false'
dc_hide_mailname='true'
dc_mailname_in_oh='true'
dc_localdelivery='mail_spool'

Thank you for any help.
Michal Filka
