Hello Michael
You do not need to add WITHOUT_ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX=yes to the Makefile.
You disable ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX by running
make WITHOUT_ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX=yes install
in ports/mail/exim.
Actually, what Makefile are you trying to add the mentioned option to?
I might have confused you as I was first speaking about Exim
(Local/Makefile) and then about the FreeBSD Exim port
(WITHOUT_ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX=yes).
If you do not want to rebuild Exim, rename your exim_outgoing.conf to
/usr/local/etc/exim/exim_outgoing.conf
and you will see how this solves the problem. ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX
restricts the directory where alternative configuration files can be
placed.
