Sorry for the delay in responding. I've been on the road and unable to access my Fedora box. So after a little grief with SELinux and permissions I have a log file of exim. I'd post it here but it's 724 lines long. I looked for boot in the file but came up empty. Is there some snippet of the file that I could post?
