hoshi:/# eximconfig
You already have an exim configuration. Continuing with eximconfig
will overwrite it. It will not keep any local modifications you have made.
If that is not your intention, you should break out now. If you do continue,
then your existing file will be renamed with .O on the end.
[---Press return---]

==============================================================================
You must choose one of the options below:

 (1) Internet site; mail is sent and received directly using SMTP. If your
     needs don't fit neatly into any category, you probably want to start
     with this one and then edit the config file by hand.

 (2) Internet site using smarthost: You receive Internet mail on this
     machine, either directly by SMTP or by running a utility such as
     fetchmail. Outgoing mail is sent using a smarthost. optionally with
     addresses rewritten. This is probably what you want for a dialup
     system.

 (3) Satellite system: All mail is sent to another machine, called a "smart
     host" for delivery. root and postmaster mail is delivered according
     to /etc/aliases. No mail is received locally.

 (4) Local delivery only: You are not on a network.  Mail for local users
     is delivered.

 (5) No configuration: No configuration will be done now; your mail system
     will be broken and should not be used. You must then do the
     configuration yourself later or run this script, /usr/sbin/eximconfig,
     as root. Look in /usr/share/doc/exim/example.conf.gz

Select a number from 1 to 5, from the list above.
Enter value (default=`1', `x' to restart): 2

==============================================================================
What is the `visible' mail name of your system? This will appear on
From: lines of outgoing messages.
Enter value (default=`localhost', `x' to restart): hoshi.openoffice.de

==============================================================================
Does this system have any other names which may appear on incoming
mail messages, apart from the visible name above (hoshi.openoffice.de) and
localhost?

By default all domains will be treated the same; if you want different
domain names to be treated differently, you will need to edit the config
file afterwards: see the documentation for the "domains" director
option.

If there are any more, enter them here, separated with spaces or commas.
If there are none, say `none'.
Enter value (default=`none', `x' to restart):

==============================================================================
All mail from here or specified other local machines to anywhere on
the internet will be accepted, as will mail from anywhere on the
internet to here.

Are there are any domains you want to relay mail for---that is, you
are prepared to accept mail for them from anywhere on the internet, but
they are not local domains.

If there are any, enter them here, separated with spaces or commas. You
can use wildcards. If there are none, say `none'. If you want to relay
mail for all domains that specify you as an MX, then say `mx'
Enter value (default=`none', `x' to restart):

==============================================================================
Obviously, any machines that use us as a smarthost have to be excluded
from the relaying controls, as using us to relay mail for them is the
whole point.

Are there any networks of local machines you want to relay mail for?

If there are any, enter them here, separated with spaces or commas. You
should use the standard address/length format (e.g. 194.222.242.0/24)
If there are none, say `none'.

You need to double the colons in IPv6 addreses (e.g. 5f03::1200::836f::::/48)
Enter value (default=`none', `x' to restart):

==============================================================================
You may want to filter out unsolicited commercial email, (UCE, also known
as spam). Unfortunately it is difficult keeping up with all the spamming
sites and abused relays.

The Realtime Blackhole List is a spam filter that someone else maintains
(see http://maps.vix.com/rbl/). They are very quick to add sites, so
if you bounce on this you may occasionally miss legitimate mail. Adding
a header is an alternative---then individual users can choose what to do
with RBL mail using their personal filter files.

Note that the RBL only works if you receive mail directly. If it is stored
for you at your ISP, the RBL won't work as it depends on the IP address the
connection comes from.

Would you like to use the RBL? ('f'ilter, 'r'eject, or 'n'o)?
Enter value (default=`n', `x' to restart):

==============================================================================
Which machine will act as the smarthost and handle outgoing mail?

Enter value (`x' to restart): mail.openoffice.de
Names are localhost:hoshi.openoffice.de!

==============================================================================
Mail for the `postmaster' and `root' accounts is usually redirected
to one or more user accounts, of the actual system administrators.
By default, I'll set things up so that mail for `postmaster' and for
various system accounts is redirected to `root', and mail for `root'
is redirected to a real user.  This can be changed by editing /etc/aliases.

Note that postmaster-mail should usually be read on the system it is
directed to, rather than being forwarded elsewhere, so (at least one of)
the users you choose should not redirect their mail off this machine.

Which user account(s) should system administrator mail go to ?
Enter one or more usernames separated by spaces or commas .  Enter
`none' if you want to leave this mail in `root's mailbox - NB this
is strongly discouraged.  Also, note that usernames should be lowercase!
Enter value (`x' to restart): fr

==============================================================================
You already have an /etc/aliases file. Do you want to replace this with
a new one (the old one will be kept and renamed to aliases.O)? (y/n)
Enter value (default=`y', `x' to restart):

frank.ronneburg:	fr

The following configuration has been entered:

==============================================================================
Mail generated on this system will have `hoshi.openoffice.de' used
as the domain part (after the @) in the From: field and similar places.

The following domain(s) will be recognised as referring to this system:
 localhost, hoshi.openoffice.de

Mail for postmaster, root, etc. will be sent to fr.

Local mail is delivered.

Outbound remote mail is sent via mail.openoffice.de.


Is this OK ?  Hit Return or type `y' to confirm it and install,
or `n' to make changes (in which case we'll go round again, giving you
your previous answers as defaults.     (y/n) y

Keeping previous /etc/exim.conf as /etc/exim.conf.O
