I then remembered that I changed the setting in my exim.conf file as indicated below and when I just changed it back to its normal state the bounce emails resumed delivery to the email account set up to collect bounces.

I changed it back to '0660' and it works.

Thanks!

Is there any advantage in using the spool method over IMAP or POP?

If you change the exim config to 0666 you must CHMOD the file to match, if one mismatches the other then it will fail.

The spool method would be faster I would think, but I can't think of any other real major advantage.
