I use Nullmailer, and it removes several dependencies of Exim4, not just Exim4 itself. There are probably some config files somewhere that are not removed, but I have an 80GB disk which currently contains only the BR and /, no data, so I am not heartbroken. I am not doing it to clear space, but to stop boot up getting slowed down by Exim4. Others' no doubt have other motivations. So I agree with you, Celejar, that Exim is probably not purged - I don't mind, so I haven't actually checked! Lisi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
