The following documentation has been installed:

    info 'Exim Overview'	-> Overview of Exim
    info Exim			-> Exim Specification (User Guide)
    info 'Exim Filtering'	-> Exim Filter Specification (for end-users)

Postscript, PDF, HTML and plain text versions of these documents, as well
as a comprehensive FAQ list, are available at http://www.exim.org/ .

To run Exim instead of sendmail on startup:

1) Create exim/configure from exim/configure.default .
2) Stop the sendmail daemon.
3) Adjust mailer.conf(5) and set 'sendmail_enable' and 'sendmail_flags'
   as appropriate in rc.conf(5).
4) Start exim with appropriate command-line options.

You may also want to configure newsyslog(8) to rotate Exim log files:

# Only HUP Exim once when rejectlog and mainlog are rotated.
/var/log/exim/mainlog	exim:mail 640 7 * @T00 Z /var/run/exim.pid
/var/log/exim/rejectlog	exim:mail 640 7 * @T00 Z
