I'm also somewhat sceptical of the need for splitting exim-users. MBM's point about thread drift makes me think it would be futile. WRT the list being "intimidating", there is more flaming than I would like, but I think the regulars are reasonably tolerant of answering "simple" questions already. We don't respond with RTFM, we respond with a reference to the configuration option that the questioner needs to know about. The documentation is already very good so I see little point in paraphrasing it. The kinds of questions that Jason lists in his more recent post seem to me to be the bread and butter of exim-users.
