+Template: exim4/dc_eximconfig_configtype
+Type: select
+# Translators beware! the following six strings form a single
+# Choices menu. - Every one of these strings has to fit in a standard
+# 80 characters console, as the fancy screen setup takes up some space
+# try to keep below ~72 characters.
+__Choices: internet site; mail is sent and received directly using SMTP, mail sent by smarthost; received via SMTP or fetchmail, mail sent by smarthost; no local mail, local delivery only; not on a network, manually convert from handcrafted Exim v3 configuration, no configuration at this time
+_Description: General type of mail configuration:
+ Select the configuration type that best meets your needs.
+ .
+ Systems with dynamic IP addresses, including dialup systems, should generally
+ be configured to send outgoing mail to another machine, called a "smart host"
+ for delivery. You can choose to receive mail on such a system; or to have no
+ local mail delivery, except mail for root and postmaster.
+
+Template: exim4/exim3_upgrade
+Type: boolean
+Default: true
+_Description: Configure Exim4 manually?
+ You indicated that you have a handcrafted Exim 3 configuration.
+ To convert this to Exim 4, you can use the exim_convert4r4(8) tool
+ after the installation. Consult
+ /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/examples/example.conf.gz and
+ /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian.gz!
+ .
+ Until your mail system is configured, it will be broken and cannot be
+ used.
+
+Template: exim4/no_config
+Type: boolean
+Default: true
+_Description: Really leave the mail system unconfigured?
+ Until your mail system is configured, it will be broken and cannot be
+ used. You can of course configure it later, either by hand or by running
+ "dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config" as root.
+
+Template: exim4/mailname
+Type: string
+_Description: System mail name:
+ Your "mail name" is the hostname portion of the address to be shown on
+ outgoing news and mail messages (following the username and @ sign) unless
+ hidden with rewriting.
+ .
+ This name will be also be used by other programs; it should be the
+ single, full domain name (FQDN) from which mail will appear to originate.
+ .
+ This name won't appear on From: lines of outgoing mails if you enable
+ rewriting.
+
+Template: exim4/dc_other_hostnames
+Type: string
+Default:
+_Description: Other destinations for which mail is accepted:
+ Please enter a list of domains for which this machine should consider
+ itself the final destination, apart from the mail name (${mailname})
+ and "localhost".
+ .
+ By default all domains will be treated the same; if you want different
+ domain names to be treated differently, you will need to edit the config
+ files afterwards.
+ .
+ If there are any more, enter them here, separated by colons. You may
+ leave this blank if there are none.
+
+Template: exim4/dc_relay_domains
+Type: string
+Default:
+_Description: Domains to relay mail for:
+ Please enter here the domains for which you accept to relay the mail.
+ .
+ Such domains are domains for which you are prepared to accept mail
+ from anywhere on the Internet. Do not mention local domains here.
+ .
+ The domains you enter here should be separated by colons. Wildcards
+ may be used.
+
+Template: exim4/dc_relay_nets
+Type: string
+Default:
+_Description: Machines to relay mail for:
+ Please enter here the networks of local machines for which you accept to
+ relay the mail.
+ .
+ This should include a list of all machines that will use us as a smarthost.
+ .
+ If there are any, enter them here, separated by colons. You should use
+ the standard address/length format (e.g. 194.222.242.0/24).
+ .
+ You need to double the colons in IPv6 addresses (e.g.
+ 5f03::1200::836f::::/48)
+
+Template: exim4/dc_readhost
+Type: string
+_Description: Visible domain name for local users:
+ Since you enabled hiding the local mailname in outgoing mail, you must
+ specify the domain name to use for mail from local users; typically this is
+ the machine on which you normally receive your mail.
+ .
+ Where will your users read their mail?
+
+Template: exim4/dc_smarthost
+Type: string
+_Description: Machine handling outgoing mail for this host (smarthost):
+ Enter the hostname of the machine to which outgoing mail is sent.
+ .
+ Refer to /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.SMTP-AUTH for notes about
+ setting up SMTP authentication.
+
+Template: exim4/dc_postmaster
+Type: string
+_Description: Root and postmaster mail recipient:
+ Mail for the "postmaster", "root", and other system accounts is usually
+ redirected to the user account of the actual system administrator.
+ If you leave this value empty, such mail will be saved in /var/mail/mail,
+ which is not recommended.
+ Note that postmaster's mail should be read on the system to which it is
+ directed, rather than being forwarded elsewhere, so (at least one of)
+ the users you choose should not redirect their mail off this machine. Use
+ a "real-" prefix to force local delivery.
+ .
+ Enter one or more usernames separated by spaces.
+
+Template: exim4/dc_noalias_regenerate
+Type: boolean
+Default: false
+_Description: Overwrite existing /etc/aliases?
+ You already have an /etc/aliases file, but it does not redirect mail for
+ root to a user account, which is strongly recommended. If you accept
+ overwriting it, the old file will be kept and renamed to aliases.O.
+
+Template: exim4/dc_local_interfaces
+Type: string
+Default: notset
+_Description: IP-addresses to listen on for incoming SMTP connections:
+ Enter a colon-separated list of IP-addresses to listen on. You need to
+ double the colons in IPv6 addresses (e.g. 5f03::1200::836f::::).
+ .
+ If you leave this value empty, Exim will listen for connections on the SMTP
+ port of all available network interfaces.
+ .
+ If this computer does not receive e-mail directly per SMTP from OTHER
+ hosts, but only from local services like fetchmail or your e-mail program
+ (MUA) talking to localhost you should prohibit external connections to
+ Exim by setting this option to 127.0.0.1 and therefore disabling listening
+ on public network interfaces.
+
+Template: exim4/dc_minimaldns
+Type: boolean
+Default: false
+_Description: Keep number of DNS-queries minimal (Dial-on-Demand)?
+ In normal mode of operation Exim makes DNS-lookups at startup, when
+ receiving or delivering message, etc. for logging purposes and to keep the
+ number of hard-coded values in the configuration file small.
+ .
+ If this were a host without permanent DNS-nameserver-access using
+ Dial-on-Demand this might have the unwanted consequence that starting up
+ exim or running the queue (even with no messages waiting) might trigger a
+ costly dial-up-event.
+ .
+ Enable this feature if you are using Dial-on-Demand; otherwise, disable it.
+
+Template: exim4/exim4-config-title
+Type: title
+_Description: Configuring Exim v4 (exim4-config)
+
+Template: exim4/use_split_config
+Type: boolean
+_Description: Split configuration into small files?
+ The Debian exim4 packages can either use a single monolithic file
+ (/etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template) or about 40 small files in
+ /etc/exim4/conf.d/ to generate the final configuration.
+ .
+ The former is better suited for large modifications and is generally
+ more stable, whereas the latter offers a comfortable way to make smaller
+ modifications but is more fragile and might break if modified
+ extensively.
+ .
+ If you are unsure then you should not use split configuration.
+
+Template: exim4/hide_mailname
+Type: boolean
+_Description: Hide local mail name in outgoing mail?
+ The headers of outgoing mail can be rewritten to make it appear to have been
+ generated on a different system, replacing "${mailname}" "localhost"
+ and "${dc_other_hostnames}" in From, Reply-To, Sender and Return-Path.
