Hi everyone, sorry to bother you. I just made a huge mistake and blew away everything in /etc/exim4/
I have tried for several hours now to get the packages reinstalled, but I can't get it to work. If anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it. I removed all of the following: exim4 exim4-base exim4-config exim4-daemon-light Now, I can't get them to go back in. I get this error: tigris:/etc/exim4# apt-get install exim4 Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done The following extra packages will be installed: exim4-base exim4-config exim4-daemon-light Suggested packages: eximon4 exim4-doc-html exim4-doc-info The following NEW packages will be installed: exim4 exim4-base exim4-config exim4-daemon-light 0 upgraded, 4 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
