Noooooooooooooooooooo! A reboot is _NOT_ needed for changes in the exim.config
file to be realized.
/etc/init.d/exim restart is your friend, and that only matters if it's running
in daemon mode. If it's fired by inetd, then the config file is parsed
whenever inetd fires up exim.
I'm convinced the "magic reboot" habit is the single worst thing that
Microsoft has done for computer users accross the globe.
