I am trying to make first use of exim to handle a list application and have queued a few messages using elm and exim as a test. These messages and a bunch of mail from vim were sitting seemingly stuck at /var/spool/exim. I deleted the vim messages and following notes from the exim website, issued:

/usr//sbin/exim -d9 -M 13MhR6-00007I-00 and got the following output:

and then the system seemingly is sitting there accepting tty input

Would be grateful for any assistance in getting exim operational
