Thanks, but there's just one of me! (Though I do get lots of suggestions
and patches and code fragments from other people.)
There was one issue with MacOSX that came up recently. Apparently its
file systems are not case-sensitive in file names. Luckily, Exim was
already prepared for this because of code I put in for cygwin. The next
release of Exim has this line
#define BASE_62 36 /* HFS+ aliases lower and upper cases in filenames. */
in the OS/os.h-Darwin file (which applies to MacOSX). You might like to
consider setting that yourself.
