Ok, thanks for the great tip. About exim -Mrm, can you help me with an
additional question?
what will be syntax if I want to get rid of all deliveries to Yahoo. I mean
how will I pass args to Exim -Mrm? should I use exigrep in conjunction with
exim -Mrm?
Please advise. Your help is so much appreciated.
