I have Redhat Cygwin installed on a Windows 2000 Server machine.
Redhat Cygwin came with exim, but the configuration was not done. When
I run it inside bash shell of Cygwin, I get following error:
bash-2.05b$ uname -a

What changes do I have to make on /etc/exim.conf? Following is output
of /etc/exim.conf except for comment lines and blank lines.
bash-2.05b$ cat /etc/exim.conf | egrep -v '^ *#|^ *$'

Just in case you are not familiar with Cygwin, it is free UNIX emulator
that runs on MS Windows (
www.cygwin.com). Thank you in advance.
