If you have a security line in your /etc/apt/sources.list and run - # apt-get update # apt-get upgrade or maybe better - # apt-get update # apt-get -u dist-upgrade It should apply security patches. If you are sure you need to upgrade put this line in your sources.list deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free Run - # apt-get update # apt-get -b source exim That will build a deb from testing source which is 3.22-4 right now according to - http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages It may or may not work.
