Ah - okay. Perhaps you could share more of your exim.cf to give us some
idea of which section line 140 falls in (mightn't have been in the main
section at all).

Perhaps on your system - not on mine. eximconfig isn't part of the Exim
distribution as far as I know. Perhaps you should contact your vendor for
support in that regard - sounds like some funky Linux variation to me.

Are you sure that those log entries were generated upon setup of an SMTP
session over TCP? Seems possible that they might also have been generated
by local invocation of the exim binary. Nothing at all logged in the main
log at the same time as those entries in the panic log?
