Hello Tom,
YES!
This was the problem.
I have just stopped exim and waited till the system start exim by itself
(without using ssh console) and it worked, queue runner is running at the
intervals.
Thank you for this easy solution :)
Damn SuSE .... That bug from your link is from 2005 on a 9.2 system ...
Unbelievable.
I wouldnt have found this.
Regards,
Juergen

What you are seeing is probably a bug in Suse's OpenSSH package which
incorrectly masks signals. When you restart Exim on a SSH shell, it won't
get SIGALRM any more.
To confirm, restart Exim on a regular console. It should then work.
