Description Marius Mauch (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-03-18 05:30:47 UTC
if ! use mbox; then
	elog "Patching maildir support into exim.conf"
	epatch ${FILESDIR}/exim-4.20-maildir.patch
fi

Any particular reason why that doesn't use the global maildir use flag?

I believe it's a hold over from pre global maildir days. and if memory serves the patch has some either-or relationship with mbox delivery. I'll take a further look at it tomorrow.

I took a brief look, but couldn't see anything immediately, I Needed to dig a bit deeper, I haven't forgotten about it though,  I'll be reviewing all of the patches as part of this round of clean ups (just removed all of the old one, and trying to track down the origin and use of files/configure

Sorry for the delay with this, currently goal is to have the bug list clear by the next holiday season.
