How could I test this?
I have no rlimits set in my /etc/security/limits.conf except
for one group of users and www-data (apache) is not member of
that group.

logging an error (or warning) and telling that this
might not matter perhaps is good for a user experiencing this thing
but I think exim should test what limits it has before setting
something... so that this error message will only be shown if
resources are really too restrictive
