Correct. As to not having an additional LDAP lookup, I'm stuck. There should be a way to avoid double LDAP lookup, but I cannot see it clearly yet. E.g. you could use an approach somewhat like this (using an additional sub return value "ldapdown"): ldap_lookup: debug_print = "R: LDAP Lookup Router" driver = manualroute condition = ${if !eq{${perl{ldap_check_rcpt}{router}}}{false}{yes}{no}} host_find_failed = defer route_list = * ${if eq{${perl{ldap_check_rcpt}{router}}}{ldapdown}{non-existent-host}{192.168.0.10}} transport = remote_smtp Now, if there is a way to cache or store the result of the perl call then one of those above could be avoided. See here what host_find_failed does: http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch20.html#SECTprioptman Dominik -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
