Hi

Does anyone know how to change the IP exim sends mail from? I'd like to change it from the main server ip say xxx.xxx.xxx.89 to say xxx.xxx.xxx.90
 
I'm not positive, but I think exim uses the IP of your hostname.. so I think the best way to do it would be to change what exim thinks your hostname is with the:

primary_hostname =

setting.. if your hostname is server.domain.com, set that to mailer.domain.com and define the IP in your dns zone as well as your /etc/hosts file.
