Is there really anything useful left which exim can't do? UUCP bang paths are the only limitation I can think of off the cuff, and hopefully noone uses those. Exim can do UUCP with domain addressing though, if anyone still uses UUCP.
Yes, I have a few sites that require it.... but then I also know how to 'yum install sendmail' too, as I'm sure just about everyone who uses UUCP does, or else compiles sendmail themsleves.
