Hello everybody!
I am upgrading exim from 4.54 to current version 4.66 under FreeBSD 6.0.
At this time I've installed new version separately and are making some tests.
I noticed that spool header files changed. The documentation says: "The second
line of the -H file contains the login name for the uid of the process that
called Exim to read the message. ... For a message received over TCP/IP,
it is normally the Exim user."
In exim 4.54 there was "mailnull 26 6" - exim user that was configured to be used
by exim. But exim 4.66 stores "root 0 0" instead.
Exim is running (and is configured and built to run) under mailnull user.
It receives messages only via TCP/IP.
What do I have to do to make exim store correct user data in spool header
files? Do I have to warry about this?
