Are you saying that each time Exim is called on port 25 for an incoming
email, it will re-read the conf file? I would like for that to be the case,
but it is not doing that on my system. Invoking it from the command line
reads the file each time, but I have to HUP the daemon to cause it to
re-read. The reason I ask is because I would like to be able to add/remove
domains from the local_domains line on a regular basis. I'm always wary of
restarting services, as this is usually somewhat costly (processor and time
wise). How is it with Exim?
