Gratters with the new exim.org Exim service.

What's the point of the above, then? My ears pricked up at it, since I'm
one of those using a dialup connection direct from my Exim 4.20 server
to exim.org, send whatever's in the queue (an automatic 'exim -qff' on
connection with my ISP), wait for SA-Exim to collect whatever my ISP
kicks at port 25, then switch off. I'm possibly (not very likely) off
the air when exim.org has done its callback (my MX record is that of my
ISP's mail store). If the point isn't to blacklist my own Exim server,
why do you do it at all?

Just curious.

Best,

Tony
