Greetings.
I use webmail, i'm not running a mail server. At most i'd use an MUA
to comunicate with whichever mail services i use. However, i must have
exim4 installed. How can i work around this? Regardless of how much
resources it requires i find it irritating. The real nudge is having
"Starting MTA: " lagging by boot by half a minute or so.
That's the problem, not the fact that you have exim. It's
misconfigured somehow. (But since I don't use exim, I couldn't tell
you how to diagnose the problem.)
Oddly enough running grep exim * on /var/log only returns matches in
the popularity contest, but not in dmesg.
Can i have a regular desktop Debian without an MTA?
Desktop? Yes.
Linux? No.
