In priciple, no, but there may be gotchas having to do with DNS and reverse DNS lookups. See the 'passwd.client' section of 'man exim4-config_files'; read the manpage, and see this thread for an account of some trouble I once had using exim with Gmail:

This could be for a number of reasons. Most likely first choice would be the gnome settings about removable devices. If somehow they got set to not mount the device automatically that would be a problem. Your user needs to be in the plugdev group (check with groups <username>), hald and udev need to be properly installed and running. hald needs certain libraries which may or may not be bugged, upgrade everything involved to the latest version you can and try again. That's just of the top of my head. Let us know if you make any progress. :-) greets, Wim
