| PackageDescription | support files for all exim MTA (v4) packages
Exim (v4) is a mail transport agent. exim4-base provides the support
files needed by all exim4 daemon packages. You need an additional package
containing the main executable. The available packages are:
.
exim4-daemon-light
exim4-daemon-heavy
.
If you build exim4 from the source package locally, you can also
build an exim4-daemon-custom package tailored to your own feature set.
.
The Debian exim4 packages have their own web page,
http://pkg-exim4.alioth.debian.org/. There is also a FAQ list. Local
information about the way the Debian packages can be configured is
can be found in /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian.gz. This file
has also 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,
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
.
exim is a drop-in replacement for sendmail/mailq/rsmtp.
