Silly Question - Green [OK]'s on service restart missing from exim?

[OliverScott]

When I run service httpd restart I get a message telling me it is stopping followed by a green OK, then a message telling me it is starting followed by a green OK.

The same applies to other services apart from exim. Why is exim different? Or is somthing broken on my VPS?!

The green OK comes from your start/stop script for exim. That's OS Distribution dependent and generally comes from the vendor, so my guess is that exim just doesn't do it.

You can edit the script yourself if you wish, but be very careful and make a backup first.
