Many people HATE little bitty files to make things work. Me, best thing since Sliced Bread. Except I'd rather see --keepcomments as default and changed to --removecomments. My only gripe, pretty minimal. > Other readers, please take a look at #295391 before participating in > the flamewar. I for one would LOVE to see Ian produce an exim4 configurator... why not make one for Webmin. The current thing in Webmin only does monitoring. That way, it COULD be use standalone (with a wrapper) or with Webmin. Or Ian, could just look at this configuration setup as a way to keep Hosting Providers happy as dropping a file into routers, basically can setup a whole virtual domain. I use it that way. Best part is when they leave, remove the router and they are gone. I also have split up configs for other mail apps and Webservers, domain specific [PHP|Perl| Pyhton]/[pgsql|mysql] settings for Apache too. Drop the file in the right spot... voila all done. If you cannot see how making it bigtime massive sitehosting friendly... is a bad thing at all. You *DO* have an option to just use the Bigfile anytime... make sure the the file /etc/exim4/exim.conf is there and not a symlink. -- greg, [EMAIL PROTECTED] The technology that is Stronger, better, faster: Linux
