Package: exim4-base Version: 4.52-2 Severity: minor Tags: patch
Hello! The instructions in /usr/share/doc/README.Debian.xinetd contain a mistake. The line mail stream tcp nowait Debian-exim /usr/sbin/exim4 exim4 -bs should read smtp stream tcp nowait Debian-exim /usr/sbin/exim4 exim4 -bs so that the daemon does not get started from /etc/init.d/exim4 where /etc/inetd.conf is grepped for "smtp" and not "mail".
