[exim] Problem/Question Exim 4.74 and FreeBSD building TRUST…

Hello all,

I am trying to figure out what I am doing wrong and still getting this error:

2011-02-02 11:23:49 [46260] exim user lost privilege for using -C option

I have a physical machine with two instances of exim running just fine for
a few years now.

In trying to update from 4.71 to 4.74 and reading about the config change
- I can not seem to figure out what I literally need to do.

below is my /var/db/ports/exim/options file with the TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST
entries added by hand.

[/usr/ports/mail/exim]# 162 > cat /var/db/ports/exim/options
# This file is auto-generated by 'make config'.

The custom exim server is being started via daemontools, like this:

#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/sbin/exim -C /usr/local/etc/exim/amx/configure -bdf -q30m

this is how exim is compiled:

exim -bV

and here is the other exim:

Mail seems to be delivering just fine.. aside from the error in the logs:

exim user lost privilege for using -C option

Can someone help me with what I am doing wrong?

Does that error message even matter? - Errors in logs are never good..

Thanks in advance.
