Still getting the same "check permissions/owners" error. There is no root user on this installation (which is weird as I assume root is in all unixy things) so I also tried making the owner Administrator and the group System. I also tried System:System. Still no luck.
I reinstalled exim because I remembered an error that the install script gave and reran it:
"[: 5.1: bad number"
This appears right after the question regarding FQDN. Maybe this is part of the problem?

644 permissions are OK, but what are the owner and the group?
I (the only user) am the owner and it has no group:
$ ls -la exim* -rwxr--r-- 1 mike None 26475 Aug 19 01:51 exim.conf
Any ideas?
Also, how do I see a list of groups in cygwin? I know passwd shows users and what groups they might be in, but is there a command to view created groups?
The groups are listed in the file /etc/groups, which you should have.
/etc/exim.conf should be owned by SYSTEM, with group Administrators (which may also be known as "root") So just type chown 18:544 /etc/exim.conf You must be in Administrators for this command to work. You can then launch the exim daemon again.
