Good enough for a reason! Good luck with FreeBSD, BTW.

What kind of web interface? There is no web interface or Exim
administration, I'm afraid. Which is good. If you're talking
about a web interface for reading and sending mail, there are
several, but they're not in any way Exim-specific. Find any
web-based e-mail interface, install it, and you'll be fine.

Although I don't have any idea _why_ anyone would want to use
web-based interface to read and send their e-mail. Beats me.

What kind of info do you have in your database? Do you need a
full-blown database at all?

1. There's no M$ SQL interface in Exim. You're welcome to write
one, but you're even more welcome to use some other database.

2. As Dave C. pointed out, you don't normally need to
authenticate your user on an MTA lavel. POP3 or IMAP daemons
do authenticate users, though.

3. There is no 3.
