University of Cambridge for use on Unix systems connected to the
Internet. It is freely available under the terms of the GNU
General Public Licence. In style it is similar to Smail
- 3, but its facilities are more extensive, and in particular it
- has some defences against mail bombs and unsolicited junk mail in
- the form of options for refusing messages from particular hosts,
- networks, or senders. It can be installed in place of sendmail,
- although the configuration of exim is quite different to that of
- sendmail.
-
- An expanded introduction is available.

- New Things
-
- - Please note that this web site is updated asynchronously with
- exim releases, and may sometimes trail versions by a few days or
- even weeks
- -
- Current Exim versions are 3.36 and 4.05, both of
- which are bug fix releases over the previous versions.

- A Generic Windows Executable Content filter is
- available at
- ftp://ftp.exim.org/pub/filter/ or here. This is an exim system
- filter which attempts to detect Windows executables, and block
- the messages containing them. It has limitations - specifically
- related to trying to parse MIME with regular expressions,
- but many people are using it as a cheap means of protection.
- NB this is no longer being maintained.

- Exim Book
- The definitive exim book,
- written by Philip Hazel, is now available. Orders can
- be placed through a number of the on-line retailers.

+ 3, but its facilities are more general. There is a great deal
+ of flexibility in the way mail can be routed, and there are
+ extensive facilities for checking incoming mail. Exim can be
+ installed in place of sendmail, although the configuration of exim
+ is quite different to that of sendmail.

+ This is a volunteer run website with no connection to The

+
+
+ Current Versions
+
+ The current version of Exim is 4.24. See the Download page to get a copy.
+
+
+ Exim 3 and previous versions are now considered obsolete. Exim 3
+ is not being developed any further, nor is it being actively
+ maintained, though if a really serious bug were found, it would be
+ looked at.
+
+ Exim Books
+
+ The new Exim 4
+ book is available. See the book website for
+ further information.
+
+ The O'Reilly Exim 3
+ book is still available.
