'<' means "change the separator character to the one following. Normally
it's ':' but since IPv6 addresses use ':' to separate each component,
it can't be used here. Note that according to the documentation, there
should not be a space between '<' and ';'
So:
local_interfaces = <! 127.0.0.1 ! ::1
is equivalent to:
local_interfaces = <; 127.0.0.1 ; ::1
which is equivalent to the IPv4-only case of:
local_interfaces = 127.0.0.1
See section 6.15 of the exim 4.2x documentation.
