It's alive and kicking. Strangely, Exim is the first piece of software I
encountered trouble with in Vserver. I went with VServer primarily bc of
its very attractive feature of vunify (vhashify), where identical files
(on disk) and shared libs (in memory) are shared among guests (vserver
instances). This saves a great deal of resources.

Nice to know Exim works well in OpenVZ - does OpenVZ have anything like
vunify? I look for virtual server technology where I can successfully
and economically run separate email server installations.
