| PackageDescription | configuration for the exim MTA (v4)
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 exim 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.
.
Exim (v4) is a fully featured MTA (Mail Transport Agent). It is a drop-in
replacement for sendmail/mailq/rsmtp and comes with very extensive
upstream documentation in /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/spec.txt.gz.
Information about the way Debian has built the binary packages is
obtainable in /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian.gz, and there
is a Debian-centered mailing list,
pkg-exim4-users@lists.alioth.debian.org. 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
