Why? It seems that exactly thát causes arguments and options (-oX 465:25 = option -oX, argument 465:25) to be concatenated, which is then interpreted as a single option name (option -oX 465:25; exim4 knows option -oX, but not option -oX 465:25). Replacing all ${parameter:+word} constructs by ${parameter} *does* seem to work, so why was the usage of ${parameter:+word} ever introduced in /etc/init.d/exim4? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
