FWIW I am running successfully without. (Nothing fancy, just MX for my domain with spamassassin.) I had some discussion about this with upstream (on exim-dev list) and it boils down to: Often, an empty environment works fine, everything else depends on the specific local installation. "We can't provide a sensible default, as it depends on the users need and system environment." Afaict the setting we have chose for Debian (empty environment) is the correct one for the Debian config. (If not, please yell.) Documentation for custom, special circumstances wis imho not placed best in a Debian specifc documentation but should be integrated upstream. cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
