A more appropriate mailing list would have been the Debian-specific Exim
users' list mentioned in exim4's README.Debian or the SA-Exim mailing list
mentioned on SA-Exim's homepage. Fortunately, I'm subscribed to this list
too!

README.Debian.gz suggests changing dc_use_split_config to 'true' as the
quickest way to get sa-exim working, but if you don't want to use split
config you have to add the local_scan_path setting
to /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template manually.
