I assume he is using exim 4.69 on oldstable/lenny (I remember lenny had 4.69 and I know squeeze has 4.72. wheezy currently has 4.75). I assume the debian guys "fixed" these bugs by patching them out downstream, because the debian way to do it is not to bump versions until the next stable release. > Even so.. > > Any system that uses that generated split-config toolset > (Debian-only AFAIK) comes complete with extensive docs. Debian and everything based (i.e. Ubuntu etc.) on it.

I agree. I was glad when I noticed the "original" exim configuration file was quite simple in contrary to the macro hell on debian. > AFAIK, that is also an option on Debian. It is, but you have to supply your own. As far as I know, debian does not ship the default config in any of these /usr/share/doc/exim4-* directories. So you will probably need to download it from [1]. For more information please see update-exim4.conf(8)[2].
