[Mailman-Users] John: Doing Exim's Install Correctly. Hugh

I'm set up in a jail on a BSD server where I don't have root, but have
the cooperation of the root user of our project's jail.  Do I need to
connect instead with the server administrator to make this happen?
Setting up exim correctly, that is.  

BTW, this whole BSD / jail thing is a completely new trip around the
learning curve for me.  Everything works just enough different to drive
me crazy.

And in case you missed it, John W. Baxter posted about 25 minutes

John's post is at

Contact him, not me for the meaning of "once the initial install is
done correctly".
