Betreff: [Exim] PAM on Linux
For exim3, FAQ 0037 says that PAM under Linux has a problem and that the
fix involves patching the source. In the exim4 FAQ this is Q0029.
According to this URL:

      http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/000453.html


the solution is as simple as inserting the lines

     exim_user=mail
     exim_group=shadow


in /etc/exim/exim.conf. It worked for me, so if it works for others too
then perhaps the FAQsw should be updated, and maybe the documentation as
well. I'm running Debian with exim3.36.
