Hi. I have a default installation of Exim with only a few changed settings. It appears to only bind to the loopback interface. I have not set any local_interfaces values, as the default behaviour is to bind on all interfaces. But alas, exim does not respond on its IP address:

I've tried to explicitly set local_interfaces to 127.0.0.1 : 192.168.0.101 but no such luck.
Any clues?
Thanks.

Sendmail is running - NOT Exim!

well yo say that u are running exim but here say that u are running sendmail too :)
service sendmail stop service exim restart
service exim status (for checking)
to avoid that sendmail start after a reboot and exim start chkconfig sendmail off chkconfig exim on
its all....

Oops! Thanks for spotting that, I don't know how I missed it.
