[Gllug] Exim

[Jackson, Harry]

Hi all

Two Questions


One
Is there an easy way to delete all messages from the exim Queue. I have seen
a perl script to do this on google but I would have thought that there would
be a command to do this. I did try the following.

$>less /pathtolog/msglog > error.log
$>exim Mrm < error.log

No joy here. 

Two
Does anyone here use Exim with a smarthost. For some reason the setup that I
had seems to be broken. I am pretty sure that it is the authentication that
is not working because I can see the lights flash on the modem when sending
a message via debain from the windows Box. I am using this with Yahoo. I
have set the smart host up correctly in the exim.conf file with the correct
username and password for my yahoo account and the address "From" field is
correct as I know yahoo is very picky about this. I have read a lot of stuff
from google about people having problems with this. Is exim the correct
tool.


Regards;
Harry Jackson.
