While I agree that this thread has _long_ since outlived its usefulness, Bill does have a repeated habit of configuring his server in some very irregular, and sometimes standard stretching (some might say non-conforming) ways, and then recommending those configurations to newbies on this list without noting the differences from exim's usual behaviour, and their consequences. > I find it a bit ironic to see a huge discussion of problems with somebody's > personal MTA when that same somebody objected so to my small handful of > E-mails discussing a potential feature that is of interest to everyone. The objection was not to the length of the thread, in that case. It was the specific repeated demand for a new feature. Once the feature request is acknowledged and on the wish-list, it's rude to continue requesting that open source developers spend their free time working on it unless you're willing to either code it yourself or fund its implementation. - Marc -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
