Thanks.

Spotted in 2009.02.26-ac_mainlog.txt:

2009-02-25 19:28:36 H=(PVOKGANT) [203.90.57.49] rejected MAIL <codependentk29 at hermescom.com>: Access denied - Invalid HELO name (See RFC2821 4.1.1.1)

Spotted in an email I just sent myself from snowleopard:

Received: from snowleopard.snowmeow.com (snowmeow.com [208.71.174.153])
        by mx01.servology.co.uk (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7EA591137AD
	for <pippin at floof.org>; Fri, 27 Feb 2009 00:06:41 +0000 (GMT)

In other words, rDNS says snowmeow.com, so exim really ought to introduce
itself as "snowmeow.com" rather than "snowleopard.snowmeow.com".
I suggest you configure exim to HELO as "snowmeow.com" so that you get
more reliable email delivery.  A quick grep through the config suggests
that you may just need to edit /etc/mailhelo.

Either that, or get exim to explicitly bind() outbound SMTP sockets to
208.71.174.156, which has snowleopard.snowmeow.com as its rDNS.

Also, I think eth4:0 has the wrong netmask - /24 instead of the /26 all
the other IP aliases on the machine have.  That might cause you problems
talking to other machines in the same /24 but outside the /26.  *prod*
Actually it seems to work okay - maybe the other subnets are actually
on the same broadcast domain.  Seems messy, though.

Hope that helps,

Pippin
