There is an exim 4 book out, but not via O'Reilly - I gather sales were insufficient to persuade O'Reilly to do an update. As we use Exim heavily, we have both the 3 and 4 books in our NOC, as well as sending almost all new staff to Phil Hazel's excellent courses in Cambridge. -- Jim Segrave ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
