I am not talking about my own exim. On the trade fair I am talking about, a lot of booths were using Debian for their booth mail server, and a lot of people in these booths knew that I am the maintainer for the Debian exim 4 packages. Thus, being on that fair was like running the gauntlet because every other guy asked me "how can I do ssmtp with exim". > I'm sure they don't block it.
