If the original poster doesn't need the full power of exim4 (well, I actually only know well one MTA and that is qmail, which I packaged myself for some friends and for me), then some other "lighter" MTAs may be an option, like nullmailer or ssmtp. Oh, and you can interrupt the hanging processes at boot with Control-C, if you don't care that much about them being up. Of course, this is a dirty solution.
