i have following problem:
i want to send emails with an rails webapp. i set up an exim server and when looking into the logs, the sending works, but the emails aren't sent really.
i had the same problem with another isp.
the sender address is hosted on another mailserver, other isp. i think the problem is, that sending doesn't work because the sener address isn't hosted on the same server. do you have any advice on this? the logs (exim) tell me the following:
2011-01-01 14:38:06 1PZ1eo-0000Ga-38 <= <> R=1PZ1eo-0000GY-1p U=Debian-exim P=local S=1778

[email protected] is the external sender-address!
thank you!
Edit with more details
when sending a mail from command line with
echo "Test" | mail -s Testmail
[email protected]
the logs says
2011-01-01 20:45:24 1PZ7OG-0001Vp-Rx <= root@gustav U=root P=local S=360
2011-01-01 20:45:26 1PZ7OG-0001Vp-Rx =>

and i get the mail on my gmail account.
but when sending by webapp (when testing locally with sendmail it works fine) i only get this log output
