It shouldn't. Reading my post I feel embarassed that it's so unhelpful.
The reason that I didn't persist with Exim was that that I was modeling
the new system on one that had used Qmail and the person I was working
for was more comfortable with it.
If you can't get it going and want to try Qmail, it's very safe: Qmail
is set up so that you can install and test it before switching from your
old MTA.
