By default, the list separator in Exim is the colon (:).  However,
IPv6 uses the colon as well as part of the syntax of the ip, so you
need a way to tell exim "I want to use a different character to
separate lists of things."  The way to do that is as shown above;
whatever character follows the < symbol is the list separator for that
line.  So the above line says to use the ; as the separator character
for that line, which will allow you to use IPv6 addresses with no
conflicts.  You're not using it now, but it's a good practice to get
into for the future once IPv6 becomes more widely adopted.
