Re: Exim and ETRN

[Eric Stevance <stevance at afribone.net.ml>]

Philip,

Thank you for the advice!

Ok now I can see where a mistake in the script on the cat command I've got 
this error

cat: standard output: Bad file descriptor

And of course, the exim command $EXIM -bS -oMr etrn_requeue is not run.

Any idea of this error?

Thank you,

Eric
