hi,
i've built-from-src and used-as-standalone exim on many boxes. no problems.
i've just installed exim on a "small" freebsd-based router -- via
PORTS install -- as a sendmail replacement. no probs, either.
now, I want to "upgrade" exim on that router to add 'just'
DNSBL-filtering on the router, and have it function as a transparent
gateway to another lan-based, exim router.
do folks recommend still using the PORT install?
iiuc, general advice for PORTS is "use the port, don't touch the port" ... true?
if so, how/where do I configure exim if not mod'ing the port's MAKEFILE?
if not, is the advice, then, to build/install exim from source "by hand"?
thanks!
