[SA-exim] freeBSD, Exim, SA-Exim Ports Install

[RootChaos]

Hi Marc

Well, I throught that to be the problem. Fixed up some permissions, but it
still comes up with the same error....

This is what my directory / file permissions looks like :-


 [root at freebsd etc]# ls -al /usr/local/etc
 drwxr--r--   2 root  wheel     512 Apr  8 19:44 exim/

 [root at freebsd etc]# ls -al /usr/local/etc/exim/
 -rw-rw-r--   1 root  wheel  16661 Apr  8 19:44 sa-exim.conf



RC

well, it's the message clear?
sa-exim (running as exim/mail/whatever exim is configured on your machine)
doesn't have the rights to traverse /usr/local/etc/exim/ and open
sa-exim.conf
