Here's a question I have.
In exim's configure file (/usr/local/exim/configure

is there way to have the SERVER_IP field auto lookup the ip number of the host interface. Where I would specific which interface? like en0 or en1?

I am curious because I'm on a dynamic network and although my ip is relatively static... I can foresee it someday changing and grinding this to a halt.

or for that matter is it safe to put 127.0.0.1 in there and it will listen on all interfaces?

i'm thinking there has to be a string that will pull that number but my level of understanding doesn't now what it is....
