I tried fixing it by removing Exim + Dovecot and re-installing those packages.
I still get the same exact errors which are these

They install fine, and the services then start just fine, but for some reason Exim keeps shutting down on it's own.

I am confused as to what's going wrong exactly. I'm assuming it could be the configuration files? but I'm not sure. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

Which server OS do you use? You've already looked at the log files? There you might find what is going wrong.

Re: Mail-Roundcube-Exim-Dovecot issue(s)
What's in logs? When you restart services in console, what error you get?

I can't seem to find the Exim4 logs, the only one that is showing is the Dovecot logskurudo wrote:What's in logs? When you restart services in console, what error you get?
