Really? What do you think is old about it? It does the job!

I have been managing servers for over 20 years so I do understand very well
what I am saying.
You could run a single exim4u URL and have all your domain admins login
with their own domain creds.
You could also load several instances of exim4u in virtual hosts and let
domain admins only use the UI that they access
using their own domain name. Exim4U lets you do it.

Exim4U works for me.
