Hi.
There's an option at compile time (MAXINTERFACES) - which is set to 250 by
default - so you'll have hit that. You need to recompile exim or make it
only listen on a certain address (see local_interfaces option in the mail
section of the config file).
As a matter of interest, does anyone know why Exim listens on each
individual IPs - rather than INADDR_ANY - which would only require one
socket?
Cheers...
