http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1436 Summary: DNS failure causes DEFER hosts=/file Product: Exim Version: 4.82 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: bug Priority: high Component: ACLs AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [email protected] CC: [email protected] I have a conditional where hosts = some file name that contains a list of hosts. Some are IP addresses and some are host names. If any member of the list is a host name and fails on a DNS lookup then the ACL defers with a temporary error. Here's my code: accept condition = ${if exists{$acl_m_domain_directory/whitehosts.txt}{yes}{no}} hosts = $acl_m_domain_directory/whitehosts.txt The offending list member at the time I'm reporting it is: smtp.greybeardhosting.com Shouldn't such failures be ignored? The failure shut down all email delivery to the recipient's domain. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.exim.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
