How to update your exim.conf

To make use of the newest exim settings and enhancements, you can update your exim.conf by running the following as root:


wget -O /etc/exim.conf http://files.directadmin.com/services/exim.conf
wget -O /etc/exim.pl http://files.directadmin.com/services/exim.pl
chmod 755 /etc/exim.pl
cd /etc/virtual
touch blacklist_domains whitelist_from use_rbl_domains bad_sender_hosts blacklist_senders whitelist_domains whitelist_hosts whitelist_senders
echo 0 > limit
mkdir usage
chown mail:mail blacklist_domains whitelist_from use_rbl_domains bad_sender_hosts blacklist_senders whitelist_domains whitelist_hosts whitelist_senders limit usage
