An initial package of the Exim MTA. The extent of testing is that this
isn't been used to run a full mail server, my only requirement is as
a local MTA for a workstation.

Have you considered one of the MTAs we already have (opensmtpd, postfix)?

I'm against this unless some existing committer decides to adopt it. exim is just an inexhaustive source of critical CVE.

No, I was carrying over the configuration from a non-Void system, so this wasn't an option at the time. opensmtpd may be the path forward.

I don't have time to commit to maintaining the package in a timely manner, so if there's no interest then this request can be closed. Perhaps it will serve as a starting point for someone else. I'll continue to have my own fork with the package.
