Hello Marc,
thank you for the response.

Yes - the other possibility is to prevent upgrades of this package.
That is a decidedly bad idea. Exim is a huge suid binary (a design one
out never choose today, the concept was valid 25 years ago) and you need
security updates for that.
That's of course true.
Hopefully the version of Exim will not change until the configuration could be
adapted.
Security updates will not need a new version of Exim within this stable
distribution?
But there are additional other problems like spamassasin does not work any more,
so the configuration must be updated in many kinds.
Spamassassin in YOUR configuration doesn't work any more. My systems
using spamassassin via exiscan-ACL have not even ridden a bump during
the upgrade.
Maybe you are so kind to provide an example how you have included Spamassassin
in Exim,
so that it will run with the packages of Debian 11?
Is there a default configuration for a private virtual mail server on dynamic
IP's ?
Not that I am aware of. But if you roll yourself, you need to be able to
take care of it. I think there might be solutions that might be better
suited to your needs than Exim.
Indeed i am thinking that maybe Postfix is a better choice as MTA, because Exim
seems to be
more and more complicated to configure?
btw, this triggers me, as "virtual mail" does not have a definition, it
leaves like ten way to interpret the task at hand.
I would define an virtual mail system as email server for different domains,
that can ideally be managed with entries in an database like Mariadb.
