Could you explain exactly what you did to get that result? Did you edit the file? exim.conf can be created automatically from two places: 1) during setup, by /etc/postinstall/exim.sh, if it doesn't exist already. 2) by a user running /bin/exim-config As far as I can see the mode is set to 644 in both cases. If it happened during setup, please try the following: cd /etc mv exim.conf exim.conf.bak sh -x postinstall/exim.sh.done You should get a new exim.conf with the right modes. Send me the output of the sh if it looks interesting.
