Yep. But during my first tries after adding exim to the sympa group, I did
not know about the "initgroups" option, so I really was chasing two problems

....or upgrading a kernel to gain access to loop-aes, and then immediately
initializing a device for use as a loopback.... only to find that the ID's
of the md-devices had been shuffled around by the new kernel, and thereby
wiping about half my FLAC-collection before realizing what was going on
(Have about 700 CD's that I have FLAC-archived)... yep, got the t-shirt.
(No, I do not consider that vital enough to back up, since I had the
originals.. but.. given the amount of work to restore the collection...
geez)
