Dear exim community,

Please help.

I need a way to trigger an exim paniclog from a non-root user?

I need this to do good and not evil:
I lost my root access, and it will be long before I can reboot the
system (becouse it's in production). I happen to have /usr/local
mounted on one of my other systems, where I do have root access. If I
can only cause exim to write in to the paniclog then cron will
executel /etc/cron.daily/exim4-base, and that will execute
/usr/local/lib/exim4/nonzero_paniclog_hook, and I will be saved.

Alex
