Marc, OK - perhaps I/(we?) overlook that it isn't *always* split config, and I've reviewed enough of the work to recognize it was neither an idle time-waster nor done without a lot of dedicated effort. But at some point you've got to recognize that if/as/when those using the 'stock' Exim configure methodology even *try* to aid a Debian-Exim-config user, - which is not even ALL Debian-Exim users - without *at least* the caveat: 'Your environment may be very different' - we are odds-on to get our underwear - and theirs - wrapped around the drive axles. A Windows SI - feeding his family on a far more exasperating OS - passed something on to me recently: "One of the definitions of insanity is to keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different outcome each time." - Windows ain't changing. - Debian ain't changing. - Exim JFW either way - so long as one pays attention. Let's at least stop kvetching at each other about the 'different outcome' 'coz that ain't happening *either*...
