You're right - pid could be reused by different application.
Though I think it would be faster to do simple stat call for /proc/17940
Please note that kill -KILL is very brutal, and gives the process no
chance
to clean up its state. This may be what you desire if it is very
important
that exim doesn't get to do its job.
I planned to check if exim closes more-less immediately (but still with
proper cleanup) on SIGTERM.
