------- Comment #2 from holmgren@??? 2007-05-21 10:54 -------
There's some information on Exim's memory handling in
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.66/doc/html/spec_html/ch42.html#SECTmemhanloc
and http://www.exim.org/viewvc/exim/exim-src/src/store.c .

There is only one long-lived Exim process, namely the daemon process. Care has
been taken to ensure that it doesn't leak memory. All queue runners, message
reception processes, etc. are forked from it when they aren't run separately
(e.g. from inetd, cron, or the command line), are short-lived, and can't
affect its memory usage. Because of that, it doesn't matter much that not all
memory is freed, although as you noted, the memory containing the acl_m
variables is freed before the next message is received in an SMTP session.

In short, your report doesn't seem to describe a bug, or even a problem.
