Bug#476958: exim4 logrotate do not restart exim

[Klaus Ethgen]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Package: exim4-base
Version: 4.63-17
Severity: normal

On one of my hosts sometimes I get the message from it that exim holds
the deleted file /var/log/exim4/mainlog.1 open. So it seems for me that
it is not gracefully restart at the end of logrotate.

So please do the following to not log messages to a deleted file.
