Yes. But why -q2m? Do you really want the daemon to run every
two minutes? At home, I set up exim so it tries to deliver the
messages to the recepient's MX host, if it fails, it tries to
deliver them to our mailserver. And when I bring up the PPP
link, "exim -qf" runs.
So why -q2m? -q30m is more logical.
