RE: Exim mail
Hello Daniel:
Please check if this was actually a root account that generated this e-mail.
I recall that ANY sender that gets access to the e-mail port can generate an
e-mail thatmay APPEAR to be from root.
I also am newbie but not too green.
Jamie is correct that it is the false impression that you have received.
