$ su
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/exim.sh stop
# killall exim
# cd /usr/ports/mail/exim
# make deinstall
# make install clean
# cp /your_backup_location/configure /usr/local/etc/exim/configure
# echo 'sendmail_enable="NONE"' >> /etc/rc.conf
# echo 'exim_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/exim.sh start
# exit

Good luck,
Pete
