Check the /var/log/exim/mainlog file to see if it's giving you any more detail on the rejection.

These are the following files missing in /etc/virtual

so I simply create those empty file and it start working DA should fixed that issue.

whitelist_domains
whitelist_from
whitelist_hosts
whitelist_senders
bad_sender_hosts
blacklist_domains
blacklist_hosts
blacklist_senders

I agree that if DA updates the file it should add the files.

Exim simply segfaults if the files don't exist. I suppose I could change the code so it won't execute if the file doesn't exist, but I'm not sure how.

How did the latest exim.conf get on your server?

some little tweaks but everything is fine now... but I think they should update that ASAP.

Please notify DA about this.

New DA installations include the newest exim.conf file and the necessary files.

DA updates aren't supposed to overwrite exim.conf, so I'm still asking how the new file got on your system?

Just what is it DA should fix?
