Exim "Warning: purging the environment" error on restart #114

Exim prints the following warning message whenever the service is restarted:

Jun 18 14:12:19 symbiosis2.default.aladlow.uk0.bigv.io exim4[573]: Starting MTA:2018-06-18 14:12:19 Warning: purging the environment.

Jun 18 14:12:19 symbiosis2.default.aladlow.uk0.bigv.io exim4[573]: Suggested action: use keep_environment.

This message is fairly harmless but can cause emails to be generated from cron.daily, for example:
/etc/cron.daily/exim4-base: LOG: MAIN Warning: purging the environment. Suggested action: use keep_environment.

The solution should be to set keep_environment = in Exim's configuration.
