I'm currently running exim with this patch and so far it "fired" once per 2 days
"2009-06-03 00:15:52 [19289] daemon: queue-runner not run for 360s. Forcing. Is delivery of SIGALRM broken on this system ?"
Is such patch sane enough for upstream inclusion? Does anyone see bugs
in this approach for different configurations?
