I really wonder what the benefits of manually building exim, spamassassin and clamav are. There is really no problem with using the binary exim packages and using a hand built configuration in /etc/exim4/exim4.conf. Handbuilt packages have a very strong downside imho. - You will need to handle security updates on your own. cu andreas -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
