ok , an update on this thread - basically , the update.script that was used on my FreeBSD 6.2 server caused this signal 6 problem - i modified the original exim.sh file found in /usr/local/directadmin/scripts to the currect stable release of exim which is 4.68 , grabed the file from http://files.directadmin.com/services/freebsd6.0/ and ran the script haven't had an issue since.

any question or queries are welcome.
