How to enable alternate port for exim?

Exim is a mail transfer agent (MTA) used on Linux/Unix-like operating systems. It is freely available under the GNU GPL and it aims to be a general and flexible mailer with extensive facilities for checking incoming e-mail.

1) Login to WHM as root.

2) In WHM click on  Main >> Service Configuration >> Service Manager

3) Now tick the check box under Exim on another port and also enter the alternate port no: in the corresponding text box.
