Assumpte: [exim] Viewing compiled-in settings
Just curious... given an 'exim' executable, is there a way to see the
compiled-in settings? Specifically, I'm wondering about CONFIGURE_FILE.
"exim -bV" shows which file is being used for this particular invocation, but
not the complete CONFIGURE_FILE list.

One of the things which used to baffle me about the Debian exim4 package was
that CONFIGURE_FILE names two files (namely, /etc/exim4/exim4.conf and
/var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated), which I hadn't realised was possible
until then. "man exim4" simply tells me that, if "-C" is not used, then
CONFIGURE_FILE is used (but it doesn't show me what files that means).

'/usr/bin/strings' reveals all :-)
