Hi,
As I need Exim only to send outgoing emails, I was wondering if it’s possible to set it listening only on localhost (127.0.0.1).
Thanks for any help!

Try adding:
dc_local_interfaces='127.0.0.1'
to /etc/exim4/exim4.template.conf
And then restart exim4
Restarting Exim, an error shows up:
missing rewrite replacement string
Does it include a line number?
Exim configuration error in line 414 of /var/lib/exim...
Check where line 414 and forward …
You mean checking this file? /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated.tmp
This is the output at line 414:
413
414 dc_local_interfaces='127.0.0.1'
415```
Maybe check:
Hi @eris
Didn’t manage to change the listening interface… it’s still listening on 0.0.0.0
Are you sure that this directive must be added to exim4.conf.template
and not to update-exim4.conf.conf
instead?
BTW in this last file, there’s already an entry like this:
dc_local_interfaces='127.0.0.1 ; ::1'
I’ve also tried to change it to dc_local_interfaces='127.0.0.1'
but nothing changes…
I never disabled it. It was the first result in Google…
