Stub support for Exim broken

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021203 Description of problem: redhat-switch-mail contains undocumented stub support for the Exim MTA, in addition to postfix and sebdmail. But it's broken. get_default_mta in functions.py checks for the current MTP being /usr/sbin/exim.postfix when it should be /usr/sbin/sendmail.exim Additionally it would help if the switch function could correctly stop or start all three posible MTA services, not just sendmail and postfix. I apreciate that you don't distribute an Exim RPM (though I think you should!), however with this fix redhat-switch-mail would at least support the RPM I'm building. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-switch-mail-0.5.17-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Take a look at the functions.py source 2. 3. Actual Results: redhat-switch-mail doesn't recognise Exim as the currently installed MTA Expected Results: redhat-switch-mail could usefully recognise Exim as the currently installed MTA Additional info:
exim is not yet supported in current redhat-switch-mail, because we don't have it in the distribution. I will add it in next version.
it's fixed now in 0.5.19, which will be available in next days. Thanks for your report.
