Pierre,
On my laptop, exim/minires has transient DNS lookup problems when I'm
VPN-ed into my company's network, but does not exhibit this behavior
when I'm directly connected to it.
When VPN-ed, I get errors like the following:
2003-09-12 15:07:36 HL47SO-00014S-5P <= jason.tishler@foo.com H=(tishlerjason.bar.foo.com) [127.0.0.1] P=smtp S=882 id=20030912190735.GH2180@foo.com
2003-09-12 15:08:01 HL47SO-00014S-5P == jason.tishler@foo.com R=send_to_gateway defer (-36): host lookup for smtp.foo.com did not complete (DNS timeout?)
However, if I run the following:
$ exim -qqff
then the mail is successfully sent:
2003-09-12 15:08:12 Start queue run: pid=2500 -qqff
2003-09-12 15:08:13 HL47SO-00014S-5P => jason.tishler@foo.com R=send_to_gateway T=remote_smtp H=smtp.foo.com [XX.XX.XX.XX]
2003-09-12 15:08:13 HL47SO-00014S-5P Completed
2003-09-12 15:08:13 End queue run: pid=2500 -qqff
I can also workaround the problem by creating an /etc/resolv.conf file.
Any ideas on how to further debug this problem?
Thanks,
Jason
