I must insist on this:
IPv6 is explicitly disabled on the host, the virtual machine and the ADSL router.
*I* disabled it.

It does not know and behaves accordingly.

I've been saying that from the very start.

I have been (from the start), under the impression that the installer was an Exim thing.
Which is why I posted here asking about the problem.
If the exim4.conf.template file is the distribution's resposibility and not Exim's, then I'll have to
see about this elsewhere.
Thanks so much for the heads up and for your input.
