doc patch for the committers guide

I've written a router/transport/authenticator for Exim to use smtp.freebsd.org to send mail as my FreeBSD.org email.

People said it would be a good idea to submit it.

PLEASE go over the markup/content with a fine tooth comb, this is my first adoc code.

Spurious line break?

Hi.

Thanks Larry.

There is only one issue with the markup.
https://people.freebsd.org/~dbaio/doc/PR262742-v01.png

you need a `====` before `[[smtp-setup-local-exim]]` to fix this.

Besides this change, it looks good to me.


But wait for ending the doc/slush period before committing it.

Ahh, and you don't need doceng@ on this type of change. =)

If you don't want to commit it, let us know or assign this pr to doc@.

Regards.
