Just out of curiosity: do you know when the attacker succeeded? The DSA
was published Dec 10th. Did you have a (theoretical) chance to install
the patch beofre the attack?

I wish you would elaborate. What is a DSA, and what is the patch to which
you refer? (DSA: Denial of Service Attack?) I assume the patch is something
that repels rootkit attacks. Is the patch applicable to all Linux
distros? Is it
likely to appear in the repo? Would my distro most likely include it in the
usual upgrades I do every few days?

DSA is Debian Security Advisories. Each one is numbered for later
reference. You can read about them here.
http://www.debian.org/security/
I recommend subscribing to the debian-security-announce mailing list.
Then you will get notice of each advisory as it is posted. It is a
low volume list for announcements only.

If you haven't already done so you should also make sure that you have
the security repository included in your APT sources.list file.
deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib non-free
Replace "lenny" in the above with the name of your current release.
The exim4 advisory is this one:
http://www.debian.org/security/2010/dsa-2131
I install all security upgrades as quickly as possible on all of my
machines.
