Summary: Chokes on empty command line options
Product: Exim

OS/Version: Linux

Severity: bug
Priority: medium

Hi,

exim4 chokes when an empty command line argument is passed:

$ exim -bd '' ''
exim: incompatible command-line options or arguments
$

This makes constructs like

exim -bd "$SMTPLISTENEROPTIONS"

harder to do in distribution init scripts when the options are empty.
