I used to have my own sysvinit bit for exim (on Linux), and I'll immodestly say that it was a wonder of clarity compared to most of the other sysvinit scripts out there, even those in distros. But, no more. Now I run exim from supervisor: http://supervisord.org/ Here's the config bit: [program:exim] directory = /var/spool/exim user = root command = /usr/local/bin/exim -bdf -q20m environment = PATH="/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin" stdout_logfile = /var/log/supervisor/exim-stdout.log stderr_logfile = /var/log/supervisor/exim-stderr.log -- Ian -- ## subscription configuration (requires account): ## https://lists.exim.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/exim-users.lists.exim.org/ ## unsubscribe (doesn't require an account): ## exim-users-unsubscr...@lists.exim.org ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
