Hello Jeremy,



OK, I understand. Sad from my point of view, as this means that I will never be able to upgrade Exim from now on?

(Unless I pinpoint the bug myself.)



Best regards

Lasse

I have tried to upgrade to Exim 4.95 on this machine, and to Exim 4.96 on a new server that I am setting up with MacOS Big Sur. On both servers I get Exim Panic with “setgroups: Invalid argument” at local (virtual) delivery. The users are set up with mysql, so the path for delivery is a result of a mysql query. I have really tried to figure out on my own why this is happening (through debugging, checking file and folder paths and permissions and so on), but no luck so far. On the new server everything works out fine with Exim 4.94, as with the old server.

Effectively, it's a bug.



Unfortunately due to lack of interest, eg. with any developer actually

running MacOS, maintaining a regression-test system for it and working

on discovered issues, support for that platform was withdrawn

at the 4.95 release.
