Hi!
On the begin I'd like to wish you all the best in 2013 year!

I've tried to follow you but I'm afraid this description is too low
level for my understanding of exim. Should I assume this is potential
bug in exim or bug in my configuration? Or maybe I can provide some
other information about it?
Thanks,
Marcin.
