Re: [exim] sanity check - using MACRO lists within *lsearch-es in ACL condition logic

[OpenMacNews]

hi tony,

   drop condition = ${if eq{[net-iplsearch;MY_REAL_IPS]}{$sender_helo_name}}

This won't work because eq is string comparison and has nothing to do with
list matching. (net-iplsearch; is list matching syntax.) I suggest adding
your external IP addresses to extra_local_interfaces (which you should do
anyway to ensure correct detection of routing loops), then you can use
${if [EMAIL PROTECTED] }

that said, a question re: local_interfaces & extra_local_interfaces ...



   local_interfaces = 127.0.0.1 ; 10.0.0.6




                 W.X.Y.Z
   extra_local_interfaces = MY_REAL_IPS

this seems counter-intuitive, as the external ips are anything BUT local ... no?

richard

ok, so this generally makes sense. tho, if it's supposed to be intuitively obvious, i'm feeling particularly stupid here ... reading the spec, given the fact that local_interfaces are where my exim listens, and that i'm on a NATd box, i've from your comment, then, it would be 'ok' to add the REAL/EXTERNAL ip addresses as: MY_REAL_IPS = A.B.C.D ;\ (<-- correct to use ";" rather than ":" here, yes?)
