Huh? See http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2009/01/msg02168.html But please, It was not meant as a character assassination. > If you read the context, you'll see that Bob actually pointed out a > specific technical issue, and then hoped someone more exprinced with > Exim will comment. The clause "as it's the Debian default it really should have more support available on this list." http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=209844 and http://pkg-exim4.alioth.debian.org/README/README.Debian.html#id226635 respectively. Also, just because Exim4 is the Debian default, why does that mean it should have *more* "support" than, say, postfix or any other MTA.
