It's a complex package. Does reading
/usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian.gz help?

If you have understood how things work now, can you do a patch for the
docs, making them better? It is sometimes hard to write beginner-level
docs when you have been stuck in the details of the package for two
decades.

Greetings
