Package: exim4-daemon-heavy
Version: 4.30-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: security

Section 37.1 of the spec suggests "for maximum security" periodically
removing the GnuTLS RSA/DH parameters file /var/spool/exim4/gnutls-params

Whilst it's easy enough for a sysadmin to add a cronjob manually,
perhaps it would be better if we provided one, perhaps in a new file
/etc/cron.d/exim4?

cheers,
c.
