Lazy question on my part, I'm under time pressure because bears
spilled the garbage next to my place:
Does exim under any circumstances close() the file descriptors
for the logs?
I feel it shouldn't ever do that, but I have no other explanation for
these errors. And how did _these_ errors get logged anyway? Is it
because exim runs under systemd and systemd captures its stdout and
stderr?
