Subject: Starting MTA:

Hello

in the booting sequence of Debian lenny I see a line  saying

Starting MTA:

It  "takes ages" until  Debian comes up with "exim4". Thus booting takes 
quite some time.

What does that mean?
Do I have to have that?
If not, how can I get rid of it. 

Thanks.

This might help a bit http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge_p3

MTA is mail transfer agent, exim is one of those, like sendmail, postfix et al, and you can remove this. Check the guide under install/remove some software

update-rc.d -f exim remove
