Hmmm. This would be a process that exim is instructed to use in the
configure file? There are only dnslookup, dsearch and lsearch going
on in that configure file.

However, the startup file, /etc/rc.d/rc.local, looks like:

#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.

touch /var/lock/subsys/local
hostname kuna
/b/home/exim/bin/exim -bd -q15m
apachectl start
/b/local/mailman/bin/mailmanctl -s start
/usr/lib/cour*/libexec/imapd.rc start
/usr/bin/spamd -d -u nobody
rsync --daemon
su clerk -c /usr/bin/eVote &

Can you see something wrong? Is there somewhere else to look?

Thank you again.
