I may be mistaken, but I'm sure you're supposed to set the compile-time
option of EXIM_USER= to something OTHER than root. At least this is the
way I've always compiled exim! Assuming you have a user "exim" on your
system, set the EXIM_USER= to "exim", recompile and you should be able
to uncomment "never_user" so that it works properly.
