Hello,
yes, I experienced such symptomps as well (mainly with IMAPS/POPS
sessions on the Cyrus server, not with exim).
I'm not sure if exim explicitly asks for the random device or if it's
more part of the SSL libraries. On my systems I changed /dev/random
into a symlink pointing to /dev/urandom and I'm happy with this
*practical* but probably less secure solution.
Best regards from Dresden
