On two of my systems the setup is like this: $ ls -l /etc/exim4/passwd.client -rw-r----- 1 root Debian-exim 112 2005-05-27 10:10 /etc/exim4/passwd.client I don't think it is a good idea to make this file world readable, though in my case this file is basically empty. So change the group of this file to Debian-exim (you might have a different group name for this) and chmod it back to 640 and test if it works again.
