Hi,

Exim dont accept incomming connections from clients. It only accepts connections from localhost (I can send email with squirrelmal).

I tried downloading the default exim config from directadmin, but there's no difference. Also my firewall is propper installed.
I have no idea how I can fix this problem, could anyone please help me out?
 
More information please.

Domain for example. Or server hostname.

How do you know your firewall is correct?

That doesn't mean it's correct; plenty of OS Distributions come with firewalls that by default block all incoming ports.

Note that I had no problem connecting to your exim daemon:
Code: 
[jlasman@of1 ~]$ telnet mail.edore.nl 25
Trying 81.171.108.212...

Note also that I used real addresses when I actually tried it but I obfuscated them for this thread.

it seems that my isp is blocking port 25 in every way. So problem fixxed:P
 
I seem to have the same problem, I thought I had it fixed then it started all over, cant accept no mail at all.
here is what I get when I try to telnet to that port
Unable to connect to remote host: No route to host
 
i think I have it now, sorry, think it was hostname issues again or something.
I wasnt getting the smtp cause my isp has it blocked
