    Default Exim keeps failing please help

    I have tried everything even force install and exim won't stop failing.

    When restarting it hangs here
    MaxQueue set to:100 - then when i hit ctrl+c it goes on

    Waiting for all threads to finish
    Shutting down the main socket.
    --- Stopped at Tue Jun 16 16:15:19 2009
    Closing the main socket.
    Socket file removed.
    [ OK ]
    Starting exim: [ OK ]
    Starting exim-smtps: [ OK ]



    While it is hanging here if you to service status while it is hanging
    the only thing failed is spamd. once it finishes restarting its
    goes to failed in whm.
