     You should be able to, yes.

     -heavy just has more things compiled into it, that's all.  -light is
designed for the casual home user who doesn't have a lot of RAM to waste on a
little used process whereas -heavy is more fot the serious home user or
enterprise environment.

     You shouldn't have to, apart from av.

     You shouldn't have to but it is an excellent idea to do so just in case.


     FWIW I know that the person who puts together the exim4 packages is
thinking about adding exiscan-acl to -light.  I'm not sure if he's made that
decision yet but considering the fairly ubiquitous nature of exiscan-acl as a
need for even the casual home user I hope he does.  :)
