Exim puts for in the Received: headers of some, but not all, messages. Is this a bug?
A0010: No. It is deliberate. Exim inserts a “for” phrase only if the incoming message has precisely one recipient. If there is more than one recipient, nothing is inserted. The reason for this is that not all recipients appear in the To: or Cc: headers, and it is considered a breach of privacy to expose such recipients to the others. A common case is when a message has come from a mailing list. Q0011: Instead of exim_dbmbuild, I’m using a homegrown program to build DBM (or cdb) files, but Exim doesn’t seem to be able to use them. A0011: Exim expects there to be a binary zero value on the end of each key used in a DBM file if you use the dbm lookup type, but not for the dbmnz lookup type or for the keys of a cdb file. Check that you haven’t slipped up in this regard. Q0012: Exim is unable to route to any remote domains. It doesn’t seen to be able to access the DNS. A0012: Try running exim -d+resolver -bt
