IMHO, Exim's configuration is horrendously complicated. That's not to say that Postfix is a piece of cake; however, Postfix has fewer bells and whistles. For example, I struggle to comprehend the "router" system: https://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch...

Exim's configuration is very expressive. Being able to do complex things has the tradeoff of being able to get lost in the complex things you've done, that's a given.
But I wouldn't call it complicated, not really. Expansions usually bite, but it had a REPL-like facility for getting them right since forever. The rest is pretty nice and clean DSL in my opinion.
