As everything I tried did not work I also tried effectivly to define the exim user with no luck. I deleted it but no change. I enclosed my passwd file (but it's a very common one). Here at work, I am logged as a domain user (tlefeuvre in passwd file). Tell me if you see something strange but I don't think the problem comes from here. Thanks Thomas PS: Now my configure file is owned by SYSTEM but I cannot change the group anymore (permission denied), do you know why ??
