Is this really a good idea? Since the exim install does a fair bit of
interactive
stuff anyway, wouldn't it be better to put something in there to point
out that it
does use it, and either manage hosts.allow through the install
procedure, or point
out how to use it & where the hosts_options and hosts_access manpages
are??
