(which runs on all messages as a test) simply gives "START  END" in
the log file. How can I get h_subject to appear in the logs (as
some text I can incorporate into a meaningful sentence, please?

Where is that placed in your ACLs? Is it in the DATA ACL, or have you
inadvertently put it further up the transaction stack?

within acl_check_rcpt: ACL

(and an earlier declaration of  acl_smtp_rcpt = acl_check_rcpt  )

The Subject header is part of the message content and has not
arrived yet at the time the rcpt ACL runs.

Bingo. So it goes in acl_check_data:  (acl_smtp_data = acl_check_data).

I think I was thrown of the scent because the set acl_m_origsubject1 = $rh_subject didn't work in the acl_check_data ACL but did in the acl_check_rcpt. Or because I'm inept.

Thank you Jeremy and Graeme.


For completeness, relevant bits of my revised exim4.conf:

acl_check_rcpt:
  deny
    ratelimit = 5 / 15m / per_rcpt / strict / $sender_address
log_message = Denied (sender address), sending rate of: $sender_rate by $sender_address

acl_check_data:
  warn   [will be deny once proven]
    ratelimit = 5 / 15m / per_rcpt / strict / $h_subject
log_message = Denied (subject), sending rate of: $sender_rate by $h_subject:
