I'm presently running my system with smail. What I'd like to do is to convert to an easier to configure and more capable MTA, which I believe is exim (correct me if I'm wrong:-).
However, I'm in a catch-22. dselect/dpkg won't allow me to remove smail because so many packages depend on it. And, dselect/dpkg won't allow me to install exim because smail already exists. Could someone give me some tips on the "proper" way to accomplish such a switch? Is there a way to override dselect/dpkg's dependencies for such circumstances?
