???? Did you remove postfix, while you did not want to remove postfix? Or is
this a typo in your email??
Is this correct, or as expected;
# apt depends postfix
postfix-2.0.19_20040312-11
............
Conflicts: sendmail
Conflicts: exim
# apt depends exim
exim-4.30-25.2
.........
Conflicts: sendmail
Conflicts: <sendmail-tls>
Conflicts: postfix
# apt rdepends postfix
postfix
Reverse Depends:
sendmail
exim
# apt rdepends exim
exim
Reverse Depends:
postfix
# apt install exim
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
postfix
The following NEW packages will be installed:
exim
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 removed and 26 not upgraded.
Need to get 1004kB of archives.
Do you have another package that requires exim?
If so that package may mess up your rpmdb.
