I recall a problem in my previous dayjob whereby Exim being called by PHP from a web page on an extremely busy server could occasionally dissociate from the parent process but inherit its' environment, including "listening" on port 80. The trigger seemed to be that Apache was given a "graceful" (USR1?) signal to reload its' configuration. I say "listening" in quotes because it wasn't, really, but it did bind to port 80 and prevent Apache from restarting fully. Unfortunately I completely forgot the solution to this. In the dim recesses of my mind I seem to recall it being a PHP or Apache problem, not really Exim, but I could be wrong.
