That's what I thought as well. However, it seems that after explictly
defining it seems to work ok. Then again, I adviced him to daemonize

From a developers standpoint, it makes sense fixing (if there is) any
problem with inetd/exim working. However, IMO, nothing as important such
a MTA should be run out of inetd anyway(But that's my opinion).
I can certainly check to see if this is reproducable on Net/OpenBSD. I
do not run any linux so its hard for me to comment on.
