Right, I take it to mean the same thing.

I see, so you want to upgrade to exim4, I think the latest version is
actually exim4.60.

You do not need to look at inetd.conf fortunately, all configuration
will probably happen in exim4.conf. It would be good to find out where
the conf file is on your system and if you are using the so-called
"split" configuration. If you go to the exim.conf directory you can
check to see what other files and directories are there, post their
names and maybe we can figure that out.
