+# exim
+
+Simple module executing `exim -bpc` to grab exim queue.
+This command can take a lot of time to finish its execution thus it is not recommended to run it every second.
+
+It produces only one chart:
+
+1. **Exim Queue Emails**
+ * emails
+
+Configuration is not needed.

+# netdata python.d.plugin configuration for exim 
+#
+# This file is in YaML format. Generally the format is:
+#
+# name: value
+#
+# There are 2 sections:
+#  - global variables
+#  - one or more JOBS
+#
+# JOBS allow you to collect values from multiple sources.
+# Each source will have its own set of charts.
+#
+# JOB parameters have to be indented (using spaces only, example below).
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Global Variables
+# These variables set the defaults for all JOBs, however each JOB
+# may define its own, overriding the defaults.
+
+# update_every sets the default data collection frequency.
+# If unset, the python.d.plugin default is used.
+# exim is slow, so once every 10 seconds
+update_every: 10
+
+# priority controls the order of charts at the netdata dashboard.
+# Lower numbers move the charts towards the top of the page.
+# If unset, the default for python.d.plugin is used.
+# priority: 60000
+
+# retries sets the number of retries to be made in case of failures.
+# If unset, the default for python.d.plugin is used.
+# Attempts to restore the service are made once every update_every
+# and only if the module has collected values in the past.
+# retries: 60
+
+# autodetection_retry sets the job re-check interval in seconds.
+# The job is not deleted if check fails.
+# Attempts to start the job are made once every autodetection_retry.
+# This feature is disabled by default.
+# autodetection_retry: 0
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# JOBS (data collection sources)
+#
+# The default JOBS share the same *name*. JOBS with the same name
+# are mutually exclusive. Only one of them will be allowed running at
+# any time. This allows autodetection to try several alternatives and
+# pick the one that works.
+#
+# Any number of jobs is supported.
+#
+# All python.d.plugin JOBS (for all its modules) support a set of
+# predefined parameters. These are:
+#
+# job_name:
+#     name: myname            # the JOB's name as it will appear at the
+#                             # dashboard (by default is the job_name)
+#                             # JOBs sharing a name are mutually exclusive
+#     update_every: 1         # the JOB's data collection frequency
+#     priority: 60000         # the JOB's order on the dashboard
+#     retries: 60             # the JOB's number of restoration attempts
+#     autodetection_retry: 0  # the JOB's re-check interval in seconds
+#
+# Additionally to the above, exim also supports the following:
+#
+#     command: 'exim -bpc' # the command to run
+#
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# REQUIRED exim CONFIGURATION
+#
+# netdata will query exim as user netdata.
+# By default exim will refuse to respond.
+#
+# To allow querying exim as non-admin user, please set the following
+# to your exim configuration:
+#
+#      queue_list_requires_admin = false
+#
+# Your exim configuration should be in
+#
+#     /etc/exim/exim4.conf
+# or
+#     /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/000_local_options
+#
+# Please consult your distribution information to find the exact file.
