exim config set to use /var/mail (which is empty, no hidden files either)
log said a great deal about not finding users at local host. Realized one problem: I had followed the directions for making virtual domains on one article where the unix commands had the virtual domains in the /etc/mail directory. I had used the directions from another article and sendmail was looking in /etc/mail/virtual for those files.
Fixed that.
Tried again, read log.
“… unable to set gid=20 or uid=1038 (euid=25): local delivery to transport=local_delivery”
went into the /etc/aliases file and added “angie : angie@renaissanceportraiture.com”
Tried again, read log.
“… unable to set gid=20 or uid=1038 (euid=25): local delivery to transport=local_delivery”
So, I think I have made progress, but I still don’t know.
