But make sure it is "drwxrwxrwt". Mine didn't work unless I had EXACTLY
those permissions...

The -d9 option didn't tell me anything, so I did an 'strace ./exim -M msg'
and it gave all the info...specifically that it was trying to access
/var/tmp to work with the DB. Since that is outside of the main exim code,
it wasn't able to produce a specific enough error message.
