Usually, the people making claims are to prove them.
Anyway, I looked a little through the archives, and found nothing. No
surprise for me, I'm not on this list since yesterday. Maybe we have a
different perception or trigger level regarding "rudeness". That's why I
asked for examples.

Surely not. My point is, this is a technical list. People raise topics,
other people follow up, and I'd say that most of the time the former are
satisfied. So I really don't know what's the problem.

I disagree in every single point. I really like Exim, but it's not the
Holy Grail. Exim covers a wide range of requirements, but so do other MTAs.

Probably, but MTAs are not one-size-fits-all. Many poeple only need a
tiny part of Exim's features, so it makes no sense for them to spend all
this time to learn how to use them.
