That does fix it. Ran into it somewhere the other day.

Yes, this is a bug.

Look at at reportbug for how to submit them.

Look at http://bugs.debian.org/<packagename> for info on bugs for a
particular package.

At http://bugs.debian.org/exim you'll find bug #108237 under "Important bugs
- resolved" which is a report for the bug you found. You'll also that bug
#109948 under "Minor bugs - resolved" is actually for the same prob.

I think most people will agree the most important thing is to report the bug
and make sure the subject is descriptive so that others running into the bug
see that it's already been reported.

BTW, it's great that you researched the prob and found the solution on your
own.
