I am trying to use exim4 on debian to relay mail, nothing more. I have a stage mail server and a production mail server (both written custom in python to do weird stuff).

I have been working on my [first] startup for a month now, and while it's probably atleast one more month away from an alpha release, I want to know how to deploy it the right way.
