I hosed my exim briefly (actually it was via /etc/xinetd.conf, by
uncommenting the wrong line, but I digress) but I'm back up, now.
I gotta admit, not having 200 messages in one day, was almost a
relief. :)
Anyhow -- in my desparation to force things back into working
order, I issued the command
% apt-get remove exim

Abort.
to reiterate:
% apt-get remove exim
The following packages will be REMOVED:
at exim logrotate mailagent mailx mutt
huh?
I can understand exim using on logrotate, and that mutt or mailagent
would be useful for a system carrying exim functionality, but sheesh!
Surely it's possible to use MUTT on a non-exim system? Should we
expect AT to be useless without EXIM? Holy mackerel!
