Re: Decision between Exim4U or "conventional" Vexim

The advanced features in Exim4U that require extra configuration are not 
mandatory and are parameter driven.  For example, you can enable/disable 
DKIM and the Multiple IP feature in the local settings configuration 
file, exim4u_local.conf.inc. The advanced SpamAssassin configurations 
are optional. In fact, you can disable SpamAssassin and ClamAV 
altogether if you prefer. The spamboxes and spambox reports are 
enabled/disabled within the Exim4U web interface.  Most all of the other 
advanced features, such as greylisting and ratelimiting do not require 
any extra configuration.

In a nut shell, I don't think that Exim4U is any more difficult to 
configure than most other Linux server applications including Vexim.

I have to say I installed it in a freebsd jail last night and it went in 
pretty easy. At the end of the day I just used the exim directory and 
the php front end from the tar file.
Linked /etc/exim to /usr/local/etc/exim to avoid touching any 
preconfigured paths amd linked exim.conf to configure and that was it.
Followed the install docs here 
http://exim4u.org/svn/exim4u_src/tags/1.2.1/INSTALL and just adapted for 
freebsd.
It pretty much worked out of the box including the greylisting.
I feel very loyal to vexim though and appreciate all Avleen's work and 
others that have gone into it. But in the event of there not being 
another vexim release I would have to consider swapping so in the mean 
time I will be getting to find my way around exim4u
