Hi, The exim-4.50-r1.ebuild currently sets the path to the saslauthd socket to be /var/lib/sasl2/mux. However I'm using /var/state/saslauthd/mux as the location for the saslauthd socket since this is where cyrus-imapd expects to find the socket. Can you please provide an option for exim to find the saslauthd socket at the location /var/state/saslauthd/mux? This would be most helpful. Regards, Warren.

Hi again, BTW, I just worked out that I can use a symbolic link to allow exim and cyrus-imapd to work together at the same time. So the different socket locations is not such a huge problem. Regards, Warren.
OK, so I suppose this bug can be closed.
