Description

Exim is a mail transfer agent for Unix systems connected to the Internet. It is a monolithic MTA designed to be a command line compatible drop-in replacement for Sendmail.

Exim is an excellent mailer for an ISP, as its control and flexibility are very good and its requeueing and retry algorithms are very powerful. Exim's configuration syntax is well documented.

Message after installing

The following documentation has been installed:

  man exim                              -> Exim options (command line)
  /usr/local/share/doc/exim/spec.txt    -> Exim Specification (User Guide)
  /usr/local/share/doc/exim/filter.txt  -> Exim Filter Specification (for end-users)

Postscript, PDF, HTML and texinfo versions of these documents can be
installed via one of the mail/exim-doc-* ports.

An online version as well as a comprehensive FAQ and a mailing list
archive is available at:

  http://www.exim.org/

Descriptions of new features not available it the manual, and a listing
of all changes, including bug fixes are documented in:

  /usr/local/share/doc/exim/NewStuff
  /usr/local/share/doc/exim/ChangeLog

To use Exim instead of sendmail on startup:

*) Clear the sendmail queue and stop the sendmail daemon.
*) Adjust mailer.conf(5) as appropriate.
*) Set the 'sendmail_enable' rc.conf(5) variable to 'NONE'.
*) Set the 'daily_status_include_submit_mailq' and
   'daily_clean_hoststat_enable' periodic.conf(5)
   variables to 'NO'.
*) Consider setting 'daily_queuerun_enable' and
   'daily_submit_queuerun' to "NO" in periodic.conf(5),
   if you intend to manage queue runners / deliveries closely.
*) Set the 'exim_enable' rc.conf(5) variable to 'YES'.
*) Start exim with '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/exim start'.

You may also want to configure newsyslog(8) to rotate Exim log files:

/var/log/exim/mainlog	mailnull:mail 640 7 * @T00 ZN
/var/log/exim/rejectlog	mailnull:mail 640 7 * @T00 ZN

Additional scripts to help upgrading are installed in:
