Description: configuration for the Exim MTA (v4)
Exim (v4) is a mail transport agent. exim4-config provides the configuration
for the exim4 daemon packages. The configuration framework has been split
off the main package to allow sites to replace the configuration scheme
with their own without having to change the actual exim4 packages.
.
Sites with special configuration needs (having a lot of identically
configured machines for example) can use this to distribute their own
custom configuration via the packaging system, using the magic
available with dpkg's conffile handling, without having to do local
changes on all of these machines.
.
The Debian exim4 packages have their own web page,
http://wiki.debian.org/PkgExim4. There is also a Debian-specific
FAQ list. Information about the way the Debian packages are
configured can be found in
/usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian.gz, which additionally contains
information about the way the Debian binary packages are built. The
very extensive upstream documentation is shipped in
/usr/share/doc/exim4-base/spec.txt.gz. To repeat the debconf-driven
configuration process in a standard setup, invoke dpkg-reconfigure
exim4-config. There is a Debian-centered mailing list,
[email protected]. Please ask Debian-specific
questions there, and only write to the upstream exim-users mailing
list if you are sure that your question is not Debian-specific. You
can find the subscription web page on
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-exim4-users
