Exim headache

We have exim running on our debian (sarge) box here, and I'd noticed that it was making Gigs(!) of logs which was killing the space. I can manually delete the logs (although rm doesn't like the sheer number of files so i have to pass an ls thru xargs and do it that way). I've been reading the exim docs, and it seems there is a flag 'message_logs' which I can set to false, but I'm stumped as to how to do it. I'm presuming it's a makefile change (bit late now) but I wanted to see if there was another way to do it than rebuilding it.

Any ideas?

Nevermind solved.

Just needed to add it to exim.conf. I'd looked for it before in that file but the thought never entered my head that I could just add it to it.
