Exim users - couple more questions here…
1) Does any cfg file change require a daemon restart?
Yes.
One way to minimize the need is to call frequently-changed things in
with an lsearch or similar lookup against a flat-file, any of many kinds
of 'DB' - even SQL. Also useful w/r privilege separation.
2) Can Exim be restarted in a graceful fashion such that daemon
downtime and lack of message processing is minimized?
Thanks in advance...
That's basically 'standard' with the rcd.d scripts on *BSD, MUST be
similar on Linux etc.
No harm AFAIK even if one issues a sterner level of termination, as the
listener stops, but each child process already handling a message
'usually' completes wot work is on its plate.
