Exim doesn't catch the SIGTERM received from cygrunsrv. Mailservers
don't mind dying this way. They always save work in progress anyway
and trying to complete the current delivery can take a long time.

It's kind of strange to log and return an error when the signal that
caused the exit was generated by cygrunsrv itself (my 2 cents).
