Hi Warwick,

Thanks for your suggestion and support. I'll do follow all steps
accordingly. I have one more question that configuring exim-in and exim-out
services will not lead to port binding issue ?

As when I setup exim-in and exim-out services, I got error on port
conflict, that port 25 is already in use by exim-in.

Could you please suggest some way forward.
