First, there was a bug in some Debian exim4-* packages: systemd unit file (/usr/lib/systemd/system/exim4.service) have reference fo /etc/default/exim4, while package was shipped with /etc/default/exim (without "4"), so configuration was not applied on startup. Fixed in 4.97~RC2-1. Second, on Debian systemd unit file uses variables EXIMSERVICE and UPEX4OPTS, those are not mentioned in /etc/default/exim4. I don't know why, probably content of this file is artifact of SysV era, it should be replaced. I see no problems with manual running "exim4 -d..." under Debian. Maybe your debug output was sent to /var/log/exim4/mainlog. -- Eugene Berdnikov -- ## subscription configuration (requires account): ## https://lists.exim.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/exim-users.lists.exim.org/ ## unsubscribe (doesn't require an account): ## [email protected] ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
