Exim is *fairly* easy to configure. I can probably give you some help if
you need it. Get Exim built first, then I guess we need to set it up so
that it listens on port 25, with postfix listening on port 26. You will
have to get postfix listening on port 26 yourself, I don't know how to do that.

The aim is to run Exim on port 25, with its output going into postfix via
port 26 (which isn't normally used).
