Exim4 with literal domains
I don't want DNS pointing to it yet, because I need to move stuff from the old server, (of the same name), to the new server.
I need to be able to test the new server using just the IP number.
Despite what Exim4 config files says about automatic configuration, uncommenting the line MAINALLOWDOMAIN_LITERALS generates a faulty config file with this error: "Exim configuration error in line 444 of /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated.tmp:
router name missing"
Does anyone have exim4 set up to allow literal domains?
Thx

When it's ready, then change the DNS.
However, I want to forward all the emails from the old server to the new one. If I change DNS so that it points to the new IP, how do I access the old server?
It would be simple if I could accept mail as user@[
