Exim

[Gerrit P. Haase]

Hallo Corinna,

>> c) SQL (untried)
>> 
>> Should all these options be included in the precompiled code (thus

I agree, my version of exim was linked against perl-5.6.1, but I
didn't used these functions of Exim much.  What about Exim 4 and
perl-5.8, is Exim already updated to make use of 5.8?
