Thanks for your reply Michael. I guess since we use SQL, the only option I have now is to create a new table and just edit my query strings to accomodate the conditions in the Exim config file. Is there anything I have to add to the config file aside from editing the query strings? Sorry if it's an abvious question but I'm still trying to get familiar on the Exim configurations.
