You're trying to call Exim from the command line with an untrusted configuration \
file. The message implies you're calling exim as a non-root user with an untrusted \
config file defined by the -C argument.

Either start exim as root and let it sort its' own privilege change out, or only use \
a trusted configuration file. On CentOS these are listed in \
/etc/exim/trusted-configs.
