Actually I tyhink Exim is worth a lot more than I paid for it.

Also the help I've had here has been worth a lot more too.

There's an old saying:
Give a a man a fish; you feed him for a day
Teach a man to fish; you feed him for life.

I've always found the regular contributors to this list more than
helpful in teaching me to fish; that's all I can ask of them

As someone whose job includes some 2nd/3rd line support, I can
understand their frustration if someone appears to be repeatedly asking
for fish.
