##################################################
# The Exim mail transport agent #
##################################################
# This is the template for Exim's main build-time configuration file. It
# contains settings that are independent of any operating system. These are
# things that are mostly sysadmin choices. The items below are divided into
# those you must specify, those you probably want to specify, those you might
# often want to specify, and those that you almost never need to mention.
# Edit this file and save the result to a file called Local/Makefile within the
# Exim distribution directory before running the "make" command.
# Things that depend on the operating system have default settings in
# OS/Makefile-Default, but these are overridden for some OS by files called
# called OS/Makefile-<osname>. You can further override these by creating files
# called Local/Makefile-<osname>, where "<osname>" stands for the name of your
# operating system - look at the names in the OS directory to see which names
# are recognized.
# However, if you are building Exim for a single OS only, you don't need to
# worry about setting up Local/Makefile-<osname>. Any build-time configuration
# settings you require can in fact be placed in the one file called
# Local/Makefile. It is only if you are building for several OS from the same
# source files that you need to worry about splitting off your own OS-dependent
# settings into separate files. (There's more explanation about how this all
# works in the toplevel README file, under "Modifying the building process", as
# well as in the Exim specification.)
# One OS-specific thing that may need to be changed is the command for running
# the C compiler; the overall default is gcc, but some OS Makefiles specify cc.
# You can override anything that is set by putting CC=whatever in your
# Local/Makefile.
# NOTE: You should never need to edit any of the distributed Makefiles; all
# overriding can be done in your Local/Makefile(s). This will make it easier
# for you when the next release comes along.
# The location of the X11 libraries is something else that is quite variable
# even between different versions of the same operating system (and indeed
# there are different versions of X11 as well, of course). The four settings
# concerned here are X11, XINCLUDE, XLFLAGS (linking flags) and X11_LD_LIB
# (dynamic run-time library). You need not worry about X11 unless you want to
# compile the Exim monitor utility. Exim itself does not use X11.
# Another area of variability between systems is the type and location of the
# DBM library package. Exim has support for ndbm, gdbm, tdb, and Berkeley DB.
# By default the code assumes ndbm; this often works with gdbm or DB, provided
# they are correctly installed, via their compatibility interfaces. However,
# Exim can also be configured to use the native calls for Berkeley DB (obsolete
# versions 1.85 and 2.x, or the current 3.x version) and also for gdbm.
# For some operating systems, a default DBM library (other than ndbm) is
# selected by a setting in the OS-specific Makefile. Most modern OS now have
# a DBM library installed as standard, and in many cases this will be selected
# for you by the OS-specific configuration. If Exim compiles without any
# problems, you probably do not have to worry about the DBM library. If you
# do want or need to change it, you should first read the discussion in the
# file doc/dbm.discuss.txt, which also contains instructions for testing Exim's
# interface to the DBM library.
# In Local/Makefiles blank lines and lines starting with # are ignored. It is
# also permitted to use the # character to add a comment to a setting, for
# example
#
# EXIM_GID=42 # the "mail" group
#
# However, with some versions of "make" this works only if there is no white
# space between the end of the setting and the #, so perhaps it is best
# avoided. A consequence of this facility is that it is not possible to have
# the # character present in any setting, but I can't think of any cases where
# this would be wanted.

# THESE ARE THINGS YOU MUST SPECIFY #
###############################################################################
# Exim will not build unless you specify BIN_DIRECTORY, CONFIGURE_FILE, and
# EXIM_USER. You also need EXIM_GROUP if EXIM_USER specifies a uid by number.
# If you don't specify SPOOL_DIRECTORY, Exim won't fail to build. However, it
# really is a very good idea to specify it here rather than at run time. This
# is particularly true if you let the logs go to their default location in the
# spool directory, because it means that the location of the logs is known
# before Exim has read the run time configuration file.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# BIN_DIRECTORY defines where the exim binary will be installed by "make
# install". The path is also used internally by Exim when it needs to re-invoke
# itself, either to send an error message, or to recover root privilege. Exim's
# utility binaries and scripts are also installed in this directory. There is
# no "standard" place for the binary directory. Some people like to keep all
# the Exim files under one directory such as /usr/exim; others just let the
# Exim binaries go into an existing directory such as /usr/sbin or
# /usr/local/sbin. The installation script will try to create this directory,
# and any superior directories, if they do not exist.
#BIN_DIRECTORY=/usr/exim/bin
BIN_DIRECTORY=/usr/sbin
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# CONFIGURE_FILE defines where Exim's run time configuration file is to be
# found. It is the complete pathname for the file, not just a directory. The
# location of all other run time files and directories can be changed in the
# run time configuration file. There is a lot of variety in the choice of
# location in different OS, and in the preferences of different sysadmins. Some
# common locations are in /etc or /etc/mail or /usr/local/etc or
# /usr/local/etc/mail. Another possibility is to keep all the Exim files under
# a single directory such as /usr/exim. Whatever you choose, the installation
# script will try to make the directory and any superior directories if they
# don't exist. It will also install a default runtime configuration if this
# file does not exist.
#CONFIGURE_FILE=/usr/exim/configure
CONFIGURE_FILE=/etc/exim
# It is possible to specify a colon-separated list of files for CONFIGURE_FILE.
# In this case, Exim will use the first of them that exists when it is run.
# However, if a list is specified, the installation script no longer tries to
# make superior directories or to install a default runtime configuration.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The Exim binary must normally be setuid root, so that it starts executing as
# root, but (depending on the options with which it is called) it does not
# always need to retain the root privilege. These settings define the user and
# group that is used for Exim processes when they no longer need to be root. In
# particular, this applies when receiving messages and when doing remote
# deliveries. (Local deliveries run as various non-root users, typically as the
# owner of a local mailbox.) Specifying these values as root is very strongly
# discouraged. These values are compiled into the binary.
EXIM_USER=mail
# If the setting of EXIM_USER is numeric (e.g. EXIM_USER=42), there must
# also be a setting of EXIM_GROUP. If, on the other hand, you use a name
# for EXIM_USER (e.g. EXIM_USER=exim), you don't need to set EXIM_GROUP unless
# you want to use a group other than the default group for the given user.
# EXIM_GROUP=
# Many sites define a user called "exim", with an appropriate default group,
# and use
#
# EXIM_USER=exim
#
# while leaving EXIM_GROUP unspecified (commented out).
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# SPOOL_DIRECTORY defines the directory where all the data for messages in
# transit is kept. It is strongly recommended that you define it here, though
# it is possible to leave this till the run time configuration.
# Exim creates the spool directory if it does not exist. The owner and group
# will be those defined by EXIM_USER and EXIM_GROUP, and this also applies to
# all the files and directories that are created in the spool directory.
# Almost all installations choose this:
SPOOL_DIRECTORY=/var/spool/exim
###############################################################################
# THESE ARE THINGS YOU PROBABLY WANT TO SPECIFY #
###############################################################################
# You need to specify some routers and transports if you want the Exim that you
# are building to be capable of delivering mail. You almost certainly need at
# least one type of lookup. You should consider whether you want to build
# the Exim monitor or not.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# These settings determine which individual router drivers are included in the
# Exim binary. There are no defaults in the code; those routers that are wanted
# must be defined here by setting the appropriate variables to the value "yes".
# Including a router in the binary does not cause it to be used automatically.
# It has also to be configured in the run time configuration file. By
# commenting out those you know you don't want to use, you can make the binary
# a bit smaller. If you are unsure, leave all of these included for now.
ROUTER_ACCEPT=yes
ROUTER_DNSLOOKUP=yes
ROUTER_IPLITERAL=yes
ROUTER_MANUALROUTE=yes
ROUTER_QUERYPROGRAM=yes
ROUTER_REDIRECT=yes
# This one is very special-purpose, so is not included by default.
# ROUTER_IPLOOKUP=yes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# These settings determine which individual transport drivers are included in
# the Exim binary. There are no defaults; those transports that are wanted must
# be defined here by setting the appropriate variables to the value "yes".
# Including a transport in the binary does not cause it to be used

# now.
TRANSPORT_APPENDFILE=yes
TRANSPORT_AUTOREPLY=yes
TRANSPORT_PIPE=yes
TRANSPORT_SMTP=yes
# This one is special-purpose, and commonly not required, so it is not
# included by default.
# TRANSPORT_LMTP=yes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The appendfile transport can write messages to local mailboxes in a number
# of formats. The code for three specialist formats, maildir, mailstore, and
# MBX, is included only when requested. If you do not know what this is about,
# leave these settings commented out.
SUPPORT_MAILDIR=yes
SUPPORT_MAILSTORE=yes
SUPPORT_MBX=yes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# These settings determine which file and database lookup methods are included
# in the binary. See the manual chapter entitled "File and database lookups"
# for discussion. DBM and lsearch (linear search) are included by default. If
# you are unsure about the others, leave them commented out for now.
# LOOKUP_DNSDB does *not* refer to general mail routing using the DNS. It is
# for the specialist case of using the DNS as a general database facility (not
# common).
LOOKUP_DBM=yes
LOOKUP_LSEARCH=yes
# LOOKUP_CDB=yes
# LOOKUP_DNSDB=yes
LOOKUP_DSEARCH=yes

# LOOKUP_ORACLE=yes
LOOKUP_PASSWD=yes
LOOKUP_PGSQL=yes
# LOOKUP_WHOSON=yes
# LOOKUP_WILDLSEARCH=yes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# If you have set LOOKUP_LDAP=yes, you should set LDAP_LIB_TYPE to indicate
# which LDAP library you have. Unfortunately, though most of their functions
# are the same, there are minor differences. Currently Exim knows about four
# LDAP libraries: the one from the University of Michigan (also known as
# OpenLDAP 1), OpenLDAP 2, the Netscape SDK library, and the library that comes
# with Solaris 7 onwards. Uncomment whichever of these you are using.
# LDAP_LIB_TYPE=OPENLDAP1
LDAP_LIB_TYPE=OPENLDAP2
# LDAP_LIB_TYPE=NETSCAPE
# LDAP_LIB_TYPE=SOLARIS
# If you don't set any of these, Exim assumes the original University of
# Michigan (OpenLDAP 1) library.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Additional libraries and include directories may be required for some
# lookup styles (e.g. LDAP, MYSQL or PGSQL). LOOKUP_LIBS is included only on
# the command for linking Exim itself, not on any auxiliary programs. You
# don't need to set LOOKUP_INCLUDE if the relevant directories are already
# specified in INCLUDE.
LOOKUP_INCLUDE=-I /usr/local/ldap/include -I /usr/local/mysql/include -I /usr/local/pgsql/include
LOOKUP_LIBS=-L/usr/local/lib -lldap -llber -lmysqlclient -lpq
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Compiling the Exim monitor: If you want to compile the Exim monitor, a
# program that requires an X11 display, then EXIM_MONITOR should be set to the
# value "eximon.bin". Comment out this setting to disable compilation of the
# monitor. The locations of various X11 directories for libraries and include
# files are defaulted in the OS/Makefile-Default file, but can be overridden in
# local OS-specific make files.
#EXIM_MONITOR=eximon.bin

###############################################################################
# THESE ARE THINGS YOU MIGHT WANT TO SPECIFY #
###############################################################################
# The items in this section are those that are commonly changed according to
# the sysadmin's preferences, but whose defaults are often acceptable.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Exim has support for the AUTH (authentication) extension of the SMTP
# protocol, as defined by RFC 2554. If you don't know what SMTP authentication
# is, you probably won't want to include this code, so you should leave these
# settings commented out. If you do want to make use of SMTP authentication,
# you must uncomment at least one of the following, so that appropriate code is
# included in the Exim binary. You will then need to set up the run time
# configuration to make use of the mechanism(s) selected.
AUTH_CRAM_MD5=yes
AUTH_PLAINTEXT=yes
AUTH_SPA=yes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The passwords for user accounts are normally encrypted with the crypt()
# function. Comparisons with encrypted passwords can be done using Exim's
# "crypteq" expansion operator. (This is commonly used as part of the
# configuration of an authenticator for use with SMTP AUTH.) At least one
# operating system has an extended function called crypt16(), which uses up to
# 16 characters of a password (the normal crypt() uses only the first 8). Exim
# supports the use of crypt16() as well as crypt().
# You can always indicate a crypt16-encrypted password by preceding it with
# "{crypt16}". If you want the default handling (without any preceding
# indicator) to use crypt16(), uncomment the following line:
# DEFAULT_CRYPT=crypt16
# If you do that, you can still access the basic crypt() function by preceding
# an encrypted password with "{crypt}". For more details, see the description
# of the "crypteq" condition in the manual chapter on string expansions.
# Since most operating systems do not include a crypt16() function (yet?), Exim
# has one of its own, which it uses unless HAVE_CRYPT16 is defined. Normally,
# that will be set in an OS-specific Makefile for the OS that have such a
# function, so you should not need to bother with it.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Exim can be built to support the SMTP STARTTLS command, which implements
# Transport Layer Security using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). To do this, you
# must install the OpenSSL library package or the GnuTLS library. Exim contains
# no cryptographic code of its own. Uncomment the following lines if you want
# to build Exim with TLS support. If you don't know what this is all about,
# leave these settings commented out.
# This setting is required for any TLS support (either OpenSSL or GnuTLS)
SUPPORT_TLS=yes
# Uncomment this setting if you are using OpenSSL
TLS_LIBS=-lssl -lcrypto
# Uncomment these settings if you are using GnuTLS
# USE_GNUTLS=yes
# TLS_LIBS=-lgnutls -ltasn1 -lgcrypt
# If you are running Exim as a server, note that just building it with TLS
# support is not all you need to do. You also need to set up a suitable
# certificate, and tell Exim about it by means of the tls_certificate
# and tls_privatekey run time options. You also need to set tls_advertise_hosts
# to specify the hosts to which Exim advertises TLS support. On the other hand,
# if you are running Exim only as a client, building it with TLS support
# is all you need to do.
# Additional libraries and include files are required for both OpenSSL and
# GnuTLS. The TLS_LIBS settings above assume that the libraries are installed
# with all your other libraries. If they are in a special directory, you may
# need something like
TLS_LIBS=-L/usr/local/openssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto
# or
# TLS_LIBS=-L/opt/gnu/lib -lgnutls -ltasn1 -lgcrypt
# TLS_LIBS is included only on the command for linking Exim itself, not on any
# auxiliary programs. If the include files are not in a standard place, you can
# set TLS_INCLUDE to specify where they are, for example:
TLS_INCLUDE=-I/usr/local/openssl/include/
# or
# TLS_INCLUDE=-I/opt/gnu/include
# You don't need to set TLS_INCLUDE if the relevant directories are already
# specified in INCLUDE.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The default distribution of Exim contains only the plain text form of the
# documentation. Other forms are available separately. If you want to install
# the documentation in "info" format, first fetch the Texinfo documentation
# sources from the ftp directory and unpack them, which should create files
# with the extension "texinfo" in the doc directory. You may find that the
# version number of the texinfo files is different to your Exim version number,
# because the main documentation isn't updated as often as the code. For
# example, if you have Exim version 4.03, the source tarball upacks into a
# directory called exim-4.03, but the texinfo tarball unpacks into exim-4.00.
# In this case, move the contents of exim-4.00/doc into exim-4.03/doc after you
# have unpacked them. Then set INFO_DIRECTORY to the location of your info
# directory. This varies from system to system, but is often /usr/share/info.
# Once you have done this, "make install" will build the info files and
# install them in the directory you have defined.
# INFO_DIRECTORY=/usr/share/info
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Exim log directory and files: Exim creates several log files inside a
# single log directory. You can define the directory and the form of the
# log file name here. If you do not set anything, Exim creates a directory
# called "log" inside its spool directory (see SPOOL_DIRECTORY above) and uses
# the filenames "mainlog", "paniclog", and "rejectlog". If you want to change
# this, you can set LOG_FILE_PATH to a path name containing one occurrence of
# %s. This will be replaced by one of the strings "main", "panic", or "reject"
# to form the final file names. Some installations may want something like this:
# LOG_FILE_PATH=syslog:/var/log/exim_%slog
# which results in files with names /var/log/exim_mainlog, etc. The directory
# in which the log files are placed must exist; Exim does not try to create
# it for itself. It is also your responsibility to ensure that Exim is capable
# of writing files using this path name. The Exim user (see EXIM_USER above)
# must be able to create and update files in the directory you have specified.
# You can also configure Exim to use syslog, instead of or as well as log
# files, by settings such as these
# LOG_FILE_PATH=syslog
# LOG_FILE_PATH=syslog:/var/log/exim_%slog
LOG_FILE_PATH=/var/log/exim/%s.log
# The first of these uses only syslog; the second uses syslog and also writes
# to log files. Do not include white space in such a setting as it messes up
# the building process.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Cycling log files: this variable specifies the maximum number of old
# log files that are kept by the exicyclog log-cycling script. You don't have
# to use exicyclog. If your operating system has other ways of cycling log
# files, you can use them instead. The exicyclog script isn't run by default;
# you have to set up a cron job for it if you want it.
EXICYCLOG_MAX=10
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The compress command is used by the exicyclog script to compress old log
# files. Both the name of the command and the suffix that it adds to files
# need to be defined here. See also the EXICYCLOG_MAX configuration.
COMPRESS_COMMAND=/usr/bin/gzip
COMPRESS_SUFFIX=gz
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# If the exigrep utility is fed compressed log files, it tries to uncompress
# them using this command.
ZCAT_COMMAND=/usr/bin/zcat
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Compiling in support for embedded Perl: If you want to be able to
# use Perl code in Exim's string manipulation language and you have Perl
# (version 5.004 or later) installed, set EXIM_PERL to perl.o. Using embedded
# Perl costs quite a lot of resources. Only do this if you really need it.
EXIM_PERL=perl.o
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Exim has support for PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules), a facility
# which is available in the latest releases of Solaris and in some GNU/Linux
# distributions (see
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/). The Exim
# support, which is intended for use in conjunction with the SMTP AUTH
# facilities, is included only when requested by the following setting:
SUPPORT_PAM=yes
# You probably need to add -lpam to EXTRALIBS, and in some releases of
# GNU/Linux -ldl is also needed.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Support for authentication via Radius is also available. The Exim support,
# which is intended for use in conjunction with the SMTP AUTH facilities,
# is included only when requested by setting the following parameter to the
# location of your Radius configuration file:
# RADIUS_CONFIG_FILE=/etc/radiusclient/radiusclient.conf
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Support for authentication via the Cyrus SASL pwcheck daemon is available.
# The Exim support, which is intented for use in conjunction with the SMTP AUTH
# facilities, is included only when requested by setting the following
# parameter to the location of the pwcheck daemon's socket directory.
#
# There is no need to install all of SASL on your system. You just need to run
# ./configure --with-pwcheck, cd to the pwcheck directory with sources, make
# and make install. You must create the socket directory (default /var/pwcheck)
# and chown it to exim's user and group. Once you have installed pwcheck, you
# should arrange for it to be started by root at boot time.
# CYRUS_PWCHECK_SOCKET=/var/pwcheck/pwcheck
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# TCP wrappers: If you want to use tcpwrappers from within Exim, uncomment
# this setting. See the manual section entitled "Use of tcpwrappers" in the
# chapter on building and installing Exim.
# USE_TCP_WRAPPERS=yes
# You may well also have to specify a local "include" file and an additional
# library for TCP wrappers, so you probably need something like this:
# USE_TCP_WRAPPERS=yes
# CFLAGS=-O -I/usr/local/include
# EXTRALIBS_EXIM=-L/usr/local/lib -lwrap
# but of course there may need to be other things in CFLAGS and EXTRALIBS_EXIM
# as well.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The default action of the exim_install script (which is run by "make
# install") is to install the Exim binary with a unique name such as
# exim-4.20-1, and then set up a symbolic link called "exim" to reference it,
# moving the symbolic link from any previous version. If you define NO_SYMLINK
# (the value doesn't matter), the symbolic link is not created or moved. You
# will then have to "turn Exim on" by setting up the link manually.
# NO_SYMLINK=yes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Another default action of the install script is to install a default runtime
# configuration file if one does not exist. This configuration has a router for
# expanding system aliases. The default assumes that these aliases are kept
# in the traditional file called /etc/aliases. If such a file does not exist,
# the installation script creates one that contains just comments (no actual
# aliases). The following setting can be changed to specify a different
# location for the system alias file.
SYSTEM_ALIASES_FILE=/etc/aliases

# THINGS YOU ALMOST NEVER NEED TO MENTION #
###############################################################################
# The settings in this section are available for use in special circumstances.
# In the vast majority of installations you need not change anything below.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The following commands live in different places in some OS. Either the
# ultimate default settings, or the OS-specific files should already point to
# the right place, but they can be overridden here if necessary. These settings
# are used when building various scripts to ensure that the correct paths are
# used when the scripts are run. They are not used in the Makefile itself. Perl
# is not necessary for running Exim unless you set EXIM_PERL (see above) to get
# it embedded, but there are some utilities that are Perl scripts. If you
# haven't got Perl, Exim will still build and run; you just won't be able to
# use those utilities.
# CHOWN_COMMAND=/usr/bin/chown
# CHGRP_COMMAND=/usr/bin/chgrp
# MV_COMMAND=/bin/mv
# RM_COMMAND=/bin/rm
# PERL_COMMAND=/usr/bin/perl
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The following macro can be used to change the command for building a library
# of functions. By default the "ar" command is used, with options "cq".
# Only in rare circumstances should you need to change this.
# AR=ar cq
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The following macros can be used to change the default modes that are used
# by the appendfile transport. In most installations the defaults are just
# fine, and in any case, you can change particular instances of the transport
# at run time if you want.
# APPENDFILE_MODE=0600
# APPENDFILE_DIRECTORY_MODE=0700
# APPENDFILE_LOCKFILE_MODE=0600
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# In some installations there may be multiple machines sharing file systems,
# where a different configuration file is required for Exim on the different
# machines. If CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_NODE is defined, then Exim will first look
# for a configuration file whose name is that defined by CONFIGURE_FILE,
# with the node name obtained by uname() tacked on the end, separated by a
# period (for example, /usr/exim/configure.host.in.some.domain). If this file
# does not exist, then the bare configuration file name is tried.
# CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_NODE=yes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# In some esoteric configurations two different versions of Exim are run,
# with different setuid values, and different configuration files are required
# to handle the different cases. If CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_EUID is defined, then
# Exim will first look for a configuration file whose name is that defined
# by CONFIGURE_FILE, with the effective uid tacked on the end, separated by
# a period (for eximple, /usr/exim/configure.0). If this file does not exist,
# then the bare configuration file name is tried. In the case when both
# CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_EUID and CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_NODE are set, four files
# are tried: <name>.<euid>.<node>, <name>.<node>, <name>.<euid>, and <name>.
# CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_EUID=yes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The size of the delivery buffer: This specifies the size (in bytes) of
# the buffer which is used when copying a message from the spool to a
# destination. The default value built into the source is 8192 and there is
# rarely any need to change this.
# DELIVER_BUFFER_SIZE=8192
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The mode of the database directory: Exim creates a directory called "db"
# in its spool directory, to hold its databases of hints. This variable
# determines the mode of the created directory. The default value in the
# source is 0750.
# EXIMDB_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Database file mode: The mode of files created in the "db" directory defaults
# to 0640 in the source, and can be changed here.
# EXIMDB_MODE=0640
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Database lock file mode: The mode of zero-length files created in the "db"
# directory to use for locking purposes defaults to 0640 in the source, and
# can be changed here.
# EXIMDB_LOCKFILE_MODE=0640
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# This parameter sets the maximum length of the header portion of a message
# that Exim is prepared to process. The default setting is one megabyte. The
# limit exists in order to catch rogue mailers that might connect to your SMTP
# port, start off a header line, and then just pump junk at it for ever. The
# message_size_limit option would also catch this, but it may not be set.
# HEADER_MAXSIZE="(1024*1024)"
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The mode of the input directory: The input directory is where messages are
# kept while awaiting delivery. Exim creates it if necessary, using a mode
# which can be defined here (default 0750).
# INPUT_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The mode of Exim's log directory, when it is created by Exim inside the spool
# directory, defaults to 0750 but can be changed here.
# LOG_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The log files themselves are created as required, with a mode that defaults
# to 0640, but which can be changed here.
# LOG_MODE=0640

# The TESTDB lookup is for performing tests on the handling of lookup results,
# and is not useful for general running. It should be included only when
# debugging the code of Exim.
# LOOKUP_TESTDB=yes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# /bin/sh is used by default as the shell in which to run commands that are
# defined in the makefiles. This can be changed if necessary, by uncommenting
# this line and specifying another shell, but note that a Bourne-compatible
# shell is expected.
# MAKE_SHELL=/bin/sh
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The maximum number of named lists of each type (address, domain, host, and
# local part) can be increased by changing this value. It should be set to
# a multiple of 16.
# MAX_NAMED_LIST=16
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Network interfaces: Unless you set the local_interfaces option in the runtime
# configuration file to restrict Exim to certain interfaces only, it will run
# code to find all the interfaces there are on your host. Unfortunately,
# the call to the OS that does this requires a buffer large enough to hold
# data for all the interfaces - it was designed in the days when a host rarely
# had more than three or four interfaces. Nowadays hosts can have very many
# virtual interfaces running on the same hardware. If you have more than 250
# virtual interfaces, you will need to uncomment this setting and increase the
# value.
# MAXINTERFACES=250
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Per-message logs: While a message is in the process of being delivered,
# comments on its progress are written to a message log, for the benefit of
# human administrators. These logs are held in a directory called "msglog"
# in the spool directory. Its mode defaults to 0750, but can be changed here.
# The message log directory is also used for storing files that are used by
# transports for returning data to a message's sender (see the "return_output"
# option for transports).
# MSGLOG_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# There are three options which are used when compiling the Perl interface and
# when linking with Perl. The default values for these are placed automatically
# at the head of the Makefile by the script which builds it. However, if you
# want to override them, you can do so here.
# PERL_CC=
# PERL_CCOPTS=
# PERL_LIBS=
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Identifying the daemon: When an Exim daemon starts up, it writes its pid
# (process id) to a file so that it can easily be identified. The path of the
# file can be specified here. Some installations may want something like this:
# PID_FILE_PATH=/var/lock/exim.pid
# If PID_FILE_PATH is not defined, Exim writes a file in its spool directory
# using the name "exim-daemon.pid".
# If you start up a daemon without the -bd option (for example, with just
# the -q15m option), a pid file is not written. Also, if you override the
# configuration file with the -oX option, no pid file is written. In other
# words, the pid file is written only for a "standard" daemon.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# If Exim creates the spool directory, it is given this mode, defaulting in the
# source to 0750.
# SPOOL_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The mode of files on the input spool which hold the contents of messages can
# be changed here. The default is 0640 so that information from the spool is
# available to anyone who is a member of the Exim group.
# SPOOL_MODE=0640
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Moving frozen messages: If the following is uncommented, Exim is compiled
# with support for automatically moving frozen messages out of the main spool
# directory, a facility that is found useful by some large installations. A
# run time option is required to cause the moving actually to occur. Such
# messages become "invisible" to the normal management tools.
# SUPPORT_MOVE_FROZEN_MESSAGES=yes
# End of EDITME for Exim 4.
