    It would probably help you you stated what OS you are on, and what version of Exim you are installing...as there appears to be a bug with the installer

    I think exim-4.69-1.exe...I downloaded it some hours ago so it must be the latest version..I'm using XP SP1.

    From the URL:

    Note:
    with recent release of cygwin, there may be permission problems. Try this interim work around (3 commands):
    chmod +r /etc/passwd
    chmod +r /etc/group
    chmod 777 /var

    These three commands solved the problem.....Thanks in advance
