Aihe: Re: [Exim] Exim and software to create .filter files
i put together all of the stuff i use to manage my exim setup. you can
find everything at:

http://isber.ucsb.edu/~randall/exim-mysql/
or download all the files there at
http://isber.ucsb.edu/~randall/exim-mysql/exim_mysql-0.1.tar.gz

basically, it's a bunch of php scripts to manage my email server via
the web. exim is setup such that lookups are done via mysql, so by using
the scripts you can add domains, create/edit/delete users, change user
passwords, add aliases, setup user vacation messages. there is very
little file system interaction. i also have a php page for the users to
go to so they can change their vacation message/password/email foward
options.

the documentation isn't that lengthy, but i'm open to responding for
help.
