12 <h1>The Exim Home Page</h1>
14 <p>Exim is a message transfer agent (<b>MTA</b>) developed at the
15 University of Cambridge for use on Unix systems connected to the
16 Internet. It is freely available under the terms of the <b>GNU
17 General Public Licence</b>. In style it is similar to <b>Smail
18 3</b>, but its facilities are more general. There is a great deal
19 of flexibility in the way mail can be routed, and there are
20 extensive facilities for checking incoming mail. Exim can be
21 installed in place of sendmail, although the configuration of exim
22 is quite different to that of sendmail.</p>
24 <p>An expanded, although outdated, <a
25 href="intro.html">introduction is available</a>.</p>
29 <i>This is a volunteer run website with no connection to The
30 University of Cambridge or any other institution.</i>
33 <h2>Current Versions</h2>
35 Current Exim versions are <b>3.36</b> and <b>4.14</b>, both of
36 which are bug fix releases over the previous versions.
41 <p>The University of Cambridge Computing Service is hosting a <a
42 href="http://www-tus.csx.cam.ac.uk/courses/exim/">fifth course</a>
43 on the Exim mail transfer agent on Monday 30 June to Wednesday 2
