Greetings all, I''ve been searching around for a good guide to making the switch from 3 to 4 and haven''t been able to find any as of yet. Can any of you point me towards a few good ones? Apologies if this subject has been discussed before. Thanks in advance, Bryan

well, the fact that I''m not installing exim4 until I find some useful doc would have something to do with it. Helpful information would be nice.

See http://wiki.debian.net/?PkgExim4 > > Greetings > MarcInstalling exim4-doc-{info,html} gets docs without installing the program. Unfortunately, it doesn''t include the README.Debian with upgrade advice. The doc itself has only a brief mention of upgrading. If you can install it in a chroot environment or a test machine that gives you extra safety. I''m still at exim3 myself on one machine....
