Well, that might be a solution fitting everyone's needs.

Yes... ;-)

As I didn't manage to get exim running on Debian with these lots of
files, I created a new exim.conf (starting with the default from the
exim sources) and changed it to fit my needs.
Meanwhile, I splitted the configuration again, but in another way as
the Debian default...

Gruss,
