- 'as root' meaning logged-in with UID:GID root:wheel? - or as some other user su / sudo'ed to EUID:EGID root? - or 'to root', from neither one of the above? grep 'never_users' .. in your configuration file and/or build tree. Likewise be aware that an 'on-box' shell account sending by invoking a binary does not (ordinarily) open an smtp session with Exim, hence does not traverse the acl_smtp_<whatever> cases. Not to put too fine a poitn on that, but it does not *necessarily* use Exim at all. A server can be quite content to use some other MTA for outbound cron reports, for example, so long as it does not ry to 'listen' on the same IP(s) & port(s) Exim binds to. Finally - please DO visit the Debian-specific Exim list. A pointer to it is in your docs, and it fits what you have.
