I actually have a question about this; I've always used reportbug with
the -M flag, which relays the mail through Mutt. What is the *proper*
way to set up exim4 so that reportbug will work without any errors?
(Currently I'm not using exim4 for anything but local mail relaying, as
I don't like putting my personal mail's user/pass in /etc)
