 From my reading the guidance, I think creating the new 
MESSAGE_SIZE_LIMIT parameter will be quite a simple process:

1.  Create a new blank file /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.localmacros, with 
owner root (rw), and group (r) & other (r)

2.  Insert this line into /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.localmacros

MESSAGE_SIZE_LIMIT = 100M

3.  Save the file

Early on Sunday, we'll stop exim and restart it.  This will trigger 
the reading of the new local macros file.  Doing this by hand lets me 
see immediately if the configuration change is rejected.

regards, Ron
