Dima Panov has not made any changes to the exim port since March of last

# cd /usr/ports && git log mail/exim | grep -A 1 -B 1 '^Author:

commit d7e7bb9f37ab3a7d83a3b1ca1121526d17f4bf63
Author: Dima Panov <[email protected]>
Date:   Thu Mar 27 17:02:42 2025 +0300


Perhaps hoping that he will stop ignoring exim is a bit naive.
