NEWS:
9-17-03 Verisign is adding wildcard DNS records to all of .com and .net pointing to one of their servers "as browsers don't return any useful information when the user inputs an unregistered domain". This defeats very nicely sender DNS verification as now *all* .com/.net domains are valid. (Unless you are insisting on MX records for all domains, which is a slight violation of RFC)
I strongly recommend EVERYONE add:
64.94.110.11 or 64.94.110.0/24
to the 'ignore_target_hosts'.
The following should be corrected in the ROUTER part of your exim configure file.
dnslookup:
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains
transport = remote_smtp
ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0/8 : 64.94.110.0/24
no_more
7-31-03 Start-Up files for SpamAssassin where incorrect, hence it would not start unless you did it manualy. The main ECM pkg has been updated. Also you can just simply download and install the combined Exim/SpamAssassin StartupItems files from here:
Exim and SpamAssassin Start-Up Files - download
6-1-03 SpamAssassin (SA) for system-wide spam control is added to the ECM package. If you're upgrading from earlier ECM version that does not come with SA you will have to reinstall all packages. MailAdmin has added section to control SA. Before you proceed, backup your database. You have to use the new configuration file that comes with Exim 4.20. Remember to edit items that you have changed since your last upgrade or installation. For CourierIMAP, backup and reuse the "old" config files.
5-9-03 MacOSXServerUpdate 10.2.6 breaks up Exim's symlink to "sendmail". Be sure to create a new link:
mv /usr/sbin/sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail.original chmod u-s /usr/sbin/sendmail.original ln -s /usr/exim/bin/exim-4.14-1 /usr/sbin/sendmail
