Package: exim4
Version: 4.34-8
Severity: normal

It says:
[3] If you are using split-configuration (dc_use_split_config='true' in
/etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf), the files to edit are:
  /etc/exim4/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_remote_smtp
    /etc/exim4/conf.d/auth/30_exim4-config_examples
    
But isn't 30_exim4-config_remote_smtp for the SMTP client and not the SMTP server?
It'd also be nice to mention the format of the passwd file (username:crypted password) 
and that crypted passwords can be generated via mkpasswd.

And what to edit in 30_exim4-config_examples for SASL and for non-SASL authentication.
