So, I finally got round to upgrading from Exim-3.36 to Exim-4.05.

Built 4.05 on my box (homebrew i386 box with RedHat 7.3) and it
compiled and installed just fine. However it wouldn't work with the
converted exim-3 config file... so I stripped the system out, deleted
all log files from /var/spool/exim/log and removed all traces of exim-3.

I installed the default exim-4 /usr/exim/configure file and have the
same problem: when I run it in test mode with:

    exim -bt
or
    exim -d -bt


it runs fine and tells me what it would do with various addresses,
does dns lookups, etc. just as expected. However, when I run it with:

    exim -bd -q15m


it just vanishes from the system without even writing a log entry
anywhere, like its immediately calling exit(0).

Anyon got any ideas?


Mike
