I run exim on an SGI Origin 200. It compiled reasonably painlessly, and I
just linked it with the standard SGI dbm stuff. Seems to work OK,
although at only 5000 or so messages a day it is not being pushed very
hard. If you want the diffs I used for Exim 1.62 send me an e-mail.

Well, the current Debian exim package (maintained by me) uses Berkely
1.85, but this is the version that Christoph Lameter has been having
trouble with.
