First of, man needs to disable IPv6 in exim4
.
In the following file:
/etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf
Make sure this line is there, if not, add it, or change it:
disable_ipv6='true'
But I tried only this solution and the mail is still coming, so digging further...
In the same file, make sure this line is set to true
:
dc_minimaldns='true'
Now edit this file:
/etc/hosts
Let's suppose, this line defines your server name:
127.0.1.1 server-name
Change it as follows:
127.0.1.1 server-name.localhost server-name
Now, verify, that this command:
hostname --fqdn
Returns:
server-name.localhost
If so, you can update your Exim4 configuration:
update-exim4.conf
And restart the Exim4 service:
service exim4 restart
