Right now my money is on the new Debian systemd unit files and Exim.
I'd be tending to blame systemd, also. What has it started doing differently? Can it be reverted? The log lines smell like the effective permissions on the spool area are being manipulated. Obviously Exim is fully at the mercy of any process suitably privileged to do that sort of thing. With regard to the long restart time: if you just "kill -HUP" the PID of the exim daemon, watching the log, how long is it before the new deamon is reported as running? Does the systemd config support a "reload" operation? How long does that take? Presumably a "restart" is doing a "stop" first, so it's the time there that matters. What does "exiwhat" report during that time period? -- Cheers, Jeremy -- ## 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/
