Running debian with exim4, courier-imap, courier-imap-ssl.

I can connect to my ~/Maildir to read mail. Sending from outside my domain works fine, as does sending from the command line (both to my domain and to other domains).

But ... when I'm at my desktop (dsl connection from verizon.net), in sylpheed I get 'relaying not permitted' (kmail on my desktop doesn't permit me to send from my linode domain either). (Again, I can read my ~/Maildir from my desktop.)

(I checked the postfix info log on my gateway here at home, and the mails I am having trouble with aren't going through postfix.)

I think there's some conf file(s) for exim4 or for courier which I need to vi to allow relaying by myself, but I haven't been able to pin down which file. googled and googled groups.google.com, and looked at a couple of exim + courier sites, but without success.

Anyone have a clue for me which conf file I need to vi?

TIA

Sorry to reply to my own post ... but it's working now.

I had thought that debian's exim4 read the files under

/etc/exim4/conf.d/

and if I edited them, then exim4 would behave with their settings. Turns out exim4 reads

/var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated

and after editing the files in /etc/exim4/conf.d/, you have to do `update-exim4.conf` to regenerate the real conffile.

Works now after I edited

/etc/exim4/conf.d/main/01_exim4-config_listmacrosdefs

to include my gateway's ip from `ifconfig ppp0` and did `update-exim4.conf`
