Subject: [EXIM] Building exim -- precompiled distribution?
Are precompiled versions of exim available? I normally build my own, but I'd
like to replace sendmail on an old Sun running SunOS 4.1.1 and the machine
doesn't have an ANSI C compiler. Seems overkill to install gcc just to build
exim.

Also, has anyone had problems building exim 1.82 on an SGI running IRIX 6.2?
I successfully installed 1.73 on some SGI O2s and an Origin 2000 running IRIX
6.4, but an Onyx running 6.2 has problems building eximon using the native cc:


> make

        cd build-${build:-`scripts/os-type`-`scripts/arch-type`}; make 



        cc -o em_version.o -c \
             -O2 -Olimit 4000 -I/usr/include/X11 -I. 
../exim_monitor/em_version.c
        cc -o eximon.bin -L/usr/lib \
