hi, i've built-from-src and used-as-standalone exim on many boxes. no problems. i've just installed exim on a "small" freebsd-based router -- via PORTS install -- as a sendmail replacement. no probs, either. now, I want to "upgrade" exim on that router to add 'just' DNSBL-filtering on the router, and have it function as a transparent gateway to another lan-based, exim router. do folks recommend still using the PORT install? iiuc, general advice for PORTS is "use the port, don't touch the port" ... true? if so, how/where do I configure exim if not mod'ing the port's MAKEFILE? if not, is the advice, then, to build/install exim from source "by hand"? thanks!
