crossgrade to AMD64
Just hijacking my own thread.
It seems the solution was to re-install courier, it wasn't happy trying to
run from the old i386 version. Exim was simerley broken, and needed the new
exim4-daemon-heavy package, not the default exim4-daemon-light.
If there's anyone out there still pondering crossgrading from 32bit to 64
and you're on debian, it really might just be easier to nuke the box and
re-install.
cheers,
David
