You can't include sections of configuration file in arbitrarily mixed
order, because routers should be put into "router" section, transports
to "transport" section, the same for acls, rewrite, auth and others.
Each section must have a specific delimiter for its beginning.
Yes, you can do this via sorting with specifically chosen file names, but
such approach is ugly and completely misleading. The better way is to
include each section separately, as Debian script "update-exim4.conf" does:
UPEX4C_sections="main acl router transport retry rewrite auth"
[...]
for i in ${UPEX4C_sections} ; do
cat_parts "${UPEX4C_confd}/$i"
done
