Hi, I'm working on some bash scripts that require editing the Exim configuration. After a lot of searching through the documentation and on Google, I've found this URL:

  I have a login but can't access that page either. You shouldn't modify exim.conf directly, but what you can do is: 1) For settings that are controlled by WHM, those are stored in /etc/exim.conf.localopts 2) For most other things, you would edit /etc/exim.conf.local and add your options to the correct section After making changes, rebuild exim.conf with /scripts/buildeximconf and restart Exim. Maybe someone from cPanel can fix that article so it's viewable.

  We actually have removed that article so it isn't viewable to anyone, so I don't have any way to provide that on my end. Vanessa's details are correct, although you'll want to be mindful of this case right now, which could affect the behavior:

  Thank you both for the replies, greatly appreciated! Too bad that the article is no longer viewable, it would've probably made things a lot easier. I'll try to code our script using the solution suggested by Vanessa. Edit: Actually, the article seems to be viewable again. It's almost the same solution suggested by Vanessa, just in case the article becomes unavailable again. :)
