Hi all,

On Ubuntu 6.06LTS with Exim 4.60 installed using apt-get I encountered a
problem whereby the config was not reloading even when stopping and starting
exim via the init.d script.

Upon investigation it seems that the /var/run/exim4 directory had not been
created and so the pid file could not be written and subsequently exim could
not stop, restart or reload the config automatically.

Creating the exim4 directory resolved this issue.

Many thanks
Mike Dixson
