Sheldon Hearn 30e56f6fb6 Too many people have complained about my choice of MTA user (sendmail).
Bite the bullet _now_ and use MTA user exim instead.  This means that
only early adopters of Exim-3.31 are affected, rather than lots more
folks further down the line.

I still think mailnull is better, but nobody in the Exim community
agrees with me. :-)

Bump PORTREVISION as appropriate.

The following documentation has been installed:
info 'Exim Overview' -> Overview of Exim
info Exim -> Exim Specification (User Guide)
info 'Exim Filtering' -> Exim Filter Specification (for end-users)
Postscript, PDF, HTML and plain text versions of these documents, as well
as a comprehensive FAQ list, are available at http://www.exim.org/ .
To run Exim instead of sendmail on startup:
1) Create exim/configure from exim/configure.default .
2) Stop the sendmail daemon.
3) Adjust mailer.conf(5) and set 'sendmail_enable' and 'sendmail_flags'
as appropriate in rc.conf(5).
4) Start exim with appropriate command-line options.
You may also want to configure newsyslog(8) to rotate Exim log files:
# Only HUP Exim once when rejectlog and mainlog are rotated.
/var/log/exim/mainlog exim:mail 640 7 * @T00 Z /var/run/exim.pid
/var/log/exim/rejectlog exim:mail 640 7 * @T00 Z
