I believe so:
bash-2.03$ pwd
/usr/exim/bin
bash-2.03$ ls -l exim
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 525811 Aug 6 13:29 exim
bash-2.03$

I didn't define them becuase the makefile says," If EXIM_UID is not defined,
the default in the code is to run as root unless specified otherwise at
run time. Specifying 0 at run time has the effect of unsetting the
values build into the binary.." Should I define them, and what should
I define them as?

bash-2.03$ /usr/sbin/exim -bP exim_user exim_group
exim_user =
exim_group =
bash-2.03$
Should this be corrected?
