freebsd-ports/mail/exim/pkg-descr

Exim is a mail transfer agent for Unix systems connected to the Internet.
It is a monolithic MTA designed to be a command line compatible drop-in
replacement for Sendmail.

Exim is an excellent mailer for an ISP, as its control and flexibility
are very good and its requeueing and retry algorithms are very powerful.
Exim's configuration syntax is well documented.

1) Update exiscan-acl patch to -09: Improved clamd support. New FAQ/example documentation. 2) Enable wildlsearch lookups by default and add new WITHOUT_WILDLSEARCH knob for disabling them. 3) Issue a fat warning if 127.0.0.1 is found in the relay_from_hosts hostlist of an existing configure file on upgrade. This is important for IPv6 users and doesn't hurt IPv4-only users. 4) Attempt local deliveries as the owner of the mailbox (still group mail) and don't fail if the existing mailbox permissions are narrower than those with which we would have created it. This works around pw(8) creating mailboxes with 0600 permission (instead of 0660). Don't advertise Exim's configuration syntax as simple any more. This implies that you could leverage Exim's power with just a little reading, which is not the case. Bump PORTREVISION accordingly.
