Bug#260141: Please rewrite exim4/exim4-config-title for better integration with Debian Installer
Package: exim4
Severity: wishlist
The screen which allows choosing the type of configuration is the only one
shown during a default Debian Installer base system install.
It comes immediately after other d-i screen and the current wording does not
make obvious that this screen is about configuring the mail system.
I suggest rewirting "Configuring Exim v4 (exim4-config)" to something more general such as
"Mail server (Exim4) configuration" or even "Mail Server configuration"
The first paragraph should maybe mention something like "Select the mail
server configuration type that best fits your needs".
These quite minor changes would make a better integration of the Exim
configuration step into Debian Installer
I'm also wondering whether the exim4/dc_eximconfig_configtype could be
"high" priority only. After all, the default "no configuration" does not
break the system....This would save one question on "critical" priority
installs, which will be anyway used in very special cases, where full
automation and less user interaction is very important.
