Hello Tony,
it's debian woody, i just put it in etc/init.d/exim!
my problem was rather that i didn't know if i should put
both commands in there
now it looks like
start-stop-daemon -start .../exim.pid -exec $DAEMON -q10m
start-stop-daemon -start .../exim.in.pid -exec
$DAEMON -bd -odq -DSPOOL_DIRECTORY...
it seems to work right ...
and i think i understand the mechanism
the exim.in receives the incoming mail puts it to exim.in, but doesn't
deliver (queue) and the
"normal" exim delivers this mail every ten minutes?
Many thanks !!!
Regards,
Julian
