I am getting e-mails like the one below all the time, now. I had this problem
once before and I think that all I had to do was clear the paniclog with '>
paniclog', but that does not seem to be working, now. I cleared it this
morning, and when I just checked it was filling up again. It looks like I get
three lines every half hour. This is preventing me from receiving e-mails sent
by a cron job that runs a backup script. Any ideas on how to get rid of this
and not have it come back would be greatly appreciated.

Make sure your exim configuration matches with the version of exim you have
installed. Make sure there is no .dpkg-new laying around in /etc/exim4. Check 
/usr/share/doc/exim4-base/changelog.gz.

Notably, in /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.UPDATING.gz:

# Exim version 4.94
# -----------------
#
# Some Transports now refuse to use tainted data in constructing their delivery
# location; this WILL BREAK configurations which are not updated accordingly.
# In particular: any Transport use of $local_part which has been relying upon
# check_local_user far away in the Router to make it safe, should be updated to
# replace $local_part with $local_part_data.


Cheers,
