I currently am running Debian stable (latest) with exim4 installed and
configured for multiple config files.

Now here is what I want to do.

I want to get email to my system using my DNS but I can't find anywhere
in exim4 or on the Internet to tell exim4 to see my DNS as my system and
not a relay I tried editing tons of files and Internet searching but it
constantly says relay failed. Only thing is, to my DNS, it is not a
relay but a local delivery.
