[Description Dmitry A. Bakshaev 2011-04-15 06:20:17 UTC]

exim automatically started after scheduled logrotate action.
on clean install exim started with default config and listen on 0.0.0.0:25.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. /etc/init.d/exim stop
2. /usr/sbin/logrotate -vf /etc/logrotate.conf
3. exim started and listen on 0.0.0.0:25
Actual Results:  
ps ax|grep exim
29211 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/sbin/exim -bd -q15m
netstat -nap|grep :25
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:25            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      29211/exim          


Expected Results:  
exim still stopped.
