--- Comment #6 from Marten Lehmann <[email protected]> --- You are right, technically it indeed works as you suggested. But is that really a configuration file you'd like to see in the wild? Do you think most exim users with immediately understand a block that looks like this and _not_ assume there's some error in the configuration or at least be surprised this actually works? # BEGIN mysql_servers = \ pgsql_servers = \ #END or # BEGIN mysql_servers = \ localhost::PORT_D/test/fred/ : \ pgsql_servers = \ HOSTIPV4::PORT_D2/test/bill/ : \ #END I checked for "+=" notation you suggested initially, but that's not the actual exim style. Correctly it would be mysql_servers = +localhost::PORT_N/test/root/ .ifdef FUBAR mysql_servers = +localhost::PORT_D/test/fred/ .endif mysql_servers = +HOSTIPV4::PORT_D2/test/bill/ That's similar to domains = +local_domains openssl_options = +no_sslv2 +no_sslv3 hosts = +relay_from_hosts and so on. I'm not sure what's involved to extend the database options to the same behavior, yet I still think it's a desirable thing and I'd highly prefer it to the workaround. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. -- ## subscription configuration (requires account): ## https://lists.exim.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/exim-dev.lists.exim.org/ ## unsubscribe (doesn't require an account): ## [email protected] ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
