how to start exim

ok i feel embarrased asking this but i have only really configured things like apache, mysql, php shoutcast servers etc in the past.

Anyway i have looked and looked but it doesn't seem to be covered in the user doc?

anyway, i have it compiled

dirs are

/usr/local/exim
/usr/local/exim/bin
/usr/local/exim/mail_spool

now

this is what i tried....

cd /usr/local/exim/bin
./exim start

that gave no output, and its not running. i have tried to telnet port 25 but nothing.

how do u start this thing??? Thanx

oh and the system is redhat 7.3 how to start exim
