Agreed.

Yes, and on a second look, the Debian default configuration is
remarkably similiar to the exim.configure file that comes with exim's
distribution - down to the comments. Our build process even barfs at
build time when the upstream file has changed.

There is really no reason to send people who ask specific, prepared
and answerable questions to the Debian mailing list just on sight of
the word "split". It's the same thing, it's just distributed into
different files.
