I need some help with exim. Just for the heck of it, I shifted to Debian and am running a mix of testing/unstable. And I haven't broken anything major, and yes apt is great but this mail is not about apt.

I would like to start using exim as the mta as that seems to be the default (I know I can install postfix - but I want to get exim working now). I am on cable with a nigtbird plan. My webhost supports pop-before-smtp.

I had configured exim at install time and had chosen the config to work with a smarthost. Now when I send a mail from mutt, I can't see anything with the mailq command. The machine was offline at that time so the mail could not have gone and has to be in the queue.

I know that exim -q or -qf will send the queued mails, but I can't see the queued mails.

I went thru the debian reference and the exim faq but could not get any help.

I have used sendmail w/ rh 7.3 and postfix w/ rh9. What are the equivalent commands to

1. mailq 2. delete a mail in the queue 3. edit a mail in the queue (an do it w/ sendmail but not w/ postfix)

thanks,

Sharukh.
