Exim Mail User

vikasumit · 05-18-2006, 03:07 AM

Hi,

Do any one know how can I add Email account on Exim. I have Exim installed on my server with two -three domains, now I need to make valid email addresses.

oop I forget to tell you, I need this to be done using command line or editing files manually

Actually, I am working on one project in which I need to Make a Web interface to all Server admin to add emails, something like panels provide. And I am new to linux and don;t have idea about how to do this.

Thanks

you would just create a new user, and if they are going to use mail only then just set their shell to /etc/false.

Hi,

Well I am not sure how it works, but as i said

My server has different domains, (its a public web server) and I have to make like
abc@example.com and abc2@example1.com now, If I have Linux user, than it will listen to abc@exmaple.com as well, or not ?

or can you provide me a sample config that I can read... I have one server with cpanel on it using exim, but I didn't find any where how he handles different domain users.

and can i have your MSN OR yahoo id Mr Acid Please

by default if that is recieving mail for multiple domains then local users are valid for all of them. I've not used exim for a few years now, but like all MTA's you'll have an external table where you can manually redirect addresses to other accounts.

Hi,

thanks for your advice, I have found that config file, thought still hunting for solution, but atleast I am able to start using it after 2-3 days

I just send an email using EXIM.

thanks
