Bug#262262: exim4: removing exim left it running

[John]

Package: exim4
Severity: normal


I've just installed Sarge using the 29/7 build of d-i.
Immediately after restarting it, I installed postfix:
apt-get --purge install postfix <etc>

postfix is installed and running, but still:
 1357 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/sbin/exim4 -bd -q30m

 Doubtless restarting the system will curethe problem. According to
 lsof:
 lsof: no pwd entry for UID 102
 COMMAND  PID     USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE    SIZE   NODE NAME
 lsof: no pwd entry for UID 102
 exim4   1357      102  cwd    DIR    3,2       0 102097
 /var/spool/exim4 (deleted)
 lsof: no pwd entry for UID 102
 exim4   1357      102  rtd    DIR    3,2    1024      2 /
 lsof: no pwd entry for UID 102
 exim4   1357      102  txt    REG    3,2  640088  21525 /usr/sbin/exim4

 On reflection, perhaps postfix isn't working that well:
 Pademelon:~# telnet 127.0.0.1 25
 Trying 127.0.0.1...
 Connected to 127.0.0.1.
