The backported version for woody provides this as an option in the /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf file, so that when you run update-exim4.conf, it will generate the running config from either the /etc/exim4/conf.d config or the customary /etc/exim4/exim4.conf Of course, you could modify the update-exim4.conf script to do whatever you like, regardless of whether it is available in the package for the branch of your choice -davidc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
