Weird problem with exim and rt with double headers

RT Users

Hi gang,

I just noticed something really odd on our RT system. Whenever it sends
out an email, in the headers, it shows every header twice. It doesn’t
do this from exim alone, only RT does this.

Anyone have any quick ideas off the top of their heads? It’s rt-2.0.13,
freebsd 4.5, exim 3.36.

Thanks in advance.

-Rob.

I’m having the same problem, but my mail system is qmail.

Thanks,

How does your etc/config.pm look like? These settings work for me with exim:

$MailCommand = ‘sendmail’;

These options are good for most sendmail wrappers and workalikes

$SendmailArguments=“-oi”;

If you selected ‘sendmailpipe’ above, you MUST specify the path

to your sendmail binary in $SendmailPath.

!! If you did not # select ‘sendmailpipe’ above, this has no effect!!

$SendmailPath = “/usr/sbin/sendmail”;
