Haaa, thank you sir, now I can do some more directed experimenting.

Oh, and is it really enough just to run `/etc/init.d/exim4 reload'
(after making the edit) or would it be a time to use one or more of
exim4's `update' commands.

I'll have an excellent test setup.. I just ran fetchmail -c and see I
have 227 messages waiting....

PS - and thanks for the smooth way of handling the thread interruption
