Hmm...
MASTER_SITES= ftp://ftp.quite.net/pub/exim/Testing/ \
http://www.exim.org/ftp/Testing/ \
ftp://ftp.cus.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programs/exim/Testing/ \
ftp://ftp.is.co.za/networking/mail/transport/exim/Testing/
DISTFILES= exim-testing-2.053.tar.gz exim-texinfo-2.00.tar.gz
First, I think the master site (
ftp.cus.cam.ac.uk) should be the first
site in the list of sites, it just seems logical that way. (I suppose
though, a lot of FreeBSD users will be in America, so maybe it makes sence
to have an American site first.)
Second, those two files in ${DISTFILES} are in different folders on the
server; the texinfo one won't get fetched I imagine since it's not in
the Testing folder (last time I looked). I've got no idea how to deal
with having distfiles in separate places though.
I haven't installed Exim from the port, so I can't make that many
comments, these are just two things I was actually about to tell you
about, but since you asked, I may as well mention them here.
Being paranoid about the DNS (and most other things actually) I'd prefer
sender_net_accept_relay = 127.0.0.1/32
over what you're using now,
sender_host_accept_relay = localhost
