Package: exim
Version: 3.36-13
Severity: grave
Exim version 3.x has been obsolete for 3 years now. Support is not
available for it other than within the debian community. The exim
developers no longer provide any support at all for it *including*
security updates other than the recommendation to upgrade to a current
release.
Future debian releases should either:-
* Not provide an exim 3 package and obsolete it so that existing
installations are upgraded to exim4.
* Very clearly mark the package as deprecated so that users do not
continuing using it without taking responsibility for their
actions.
If this is rejected then please remove any references to the Exim
mailing lists from enclosed documentation because they cannot provide
support for Exim 3.
Additionally we are looking at a web site redesign. At that point all
documentation for versions before 4.00 may be removed.
