I'm not ENTIRELY sure I understand you
I'm still pretty new at BSD Exim
but I did run both commands as root by su-
this machine is only a filter that passes mail to my exchange box-
the only user account is jnatola aside from root-
i tried
sudo exigrep jnatola /var/log/exim/rejectlog
sudo: Command not found.
but you were correct in stating that grep and exigrep have different perms
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 4485 Aug 6 15:08 exigrep
-r-xr-xr-x 9 root wheel 72284 May 8 2005 grep
