From Chapter 42 on ACL's: http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-access_control_lists.html?#SECTACLmodi log_reject_target = <log name list> This modifier makes it possible to specify which logs are used for messages about ACL rejections. Its argument is a colon-separated list of words that can be “main”, “reject”, or “panic”. The default is main:reject. The list may be empty, in which case a rejection is not logged at all. For example, this ACL fragment writes no logging information when access is denied: deny <some conditions> log_reject_target = This modifier can be used in SMTP and non-SMTP ACLs. It applies to both permanent and temporary rejections. Its effect lasts for the rest of the current ACL. > I have the exim handbook (hard copy, 2nd edition), but I could not find what > I was looking for as the book is very long. Any hints?

It gets much easier once you become familiar with the important parts of the manual, which for me are Chapters 11, 15, 24, and 42 :-) I can usually find what I want, or a reference to what I want from one of those chapters. ...Todd -- The total budget at all receivers for solving senders' problems is $0.
