Hi Karl,

If you prefer, then you can use exim 4.69 with the current version of 
Exim4U, however, you will not be able to use DKIM signing and 
verification.  You would simply need to do the following to disable DKIM:

1) Set DKIM_ON = NO in Exim4U's local settings configuration file; 
etc/exim4u_local.conf.inc; and
2) Comment out each line that contains "dkim" in Exim4U's exim 
configuration file; etc/exim.conf.

Exim4U is relatively new.  Therefore, it is possible that you might run 
into some issues during the installation. However, I would expect that 
any issues that you might encounter would be resolved fairly quickly.  
You may want to first try Exim4U in a test environment.  Otherwise, 
since Vexim and Exim4U use separate databases, you can make the 
transition smoothly by implementing the Exim4U php code in parallel with 
Vexim's php code and then migrate to Exim4U's exim configuration when 
you are comfortable with the  new installation.

I encourage you to try out Exim4U. Please let me know if I can assist in 
any way..
