Mark does a fine job, I actually used his package. I just needed a few more
things than his package had (because he has to watch dependencies, and I
don't :-d), and added a few improvements of my own

Yep (plus a few more things like ldap2 and TLS with woody package backports)

Here's ftp://ftp.valinux.com/pub/people/merlin/exim-3.22/README
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I built exim debian packages for our mail server.
I've also added pam, ldap2, SSL/TLS, mysql and perl support

I improved the cron job to do better log rotation and archive daily eximstats
runs (the eximstats itself, is a version I improved myself to log more things)
The cron jobs are configurable from /etc/default/exim

I do not even pretend to know how to build a debian package, I just modified
the package from Marc Haber (the debian maintainer)
The source package may work, I don't know, I just built it :-)
(the binary does work, I use it on one mail server)

I've also included other debian packages that are necessary for this binary
and rebuilt for potato (glibc 2.1)

my package, like the eximstats diffs, the cron jobs and so forth.
