Dear allHello,
I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04, with exim4 and mutt installed. I
can sucessfully send, receive and read local mail on this machine. I
tried to forward the mail from my local account to my external mail
address, where I regularly read my mail. I did this by creating a
.forward file in my home directory and put in my regular (external) mail
address. However, I the messages never find their way to my external
mailbox. Any hints or ideas? How can I check what's going on? Do I need
to (re)configure exim4? How?
Matthias
I did it with a postfix configuration without problem. I created a file
.forward and just put inside the email address.
Can you send a mail to an external mailbox without the .forward file ?
(I guess yes)
You can check the logs in /var/log/ (the files containing mail and messages)
