Hi all,
My intent is to employ a whitelist of trusted host IPs.
I am trying to employ an example straight from the current (4.89) exim
manual, without success.
The specific example that seems to not work as intended is from the
description of match_ip in Chapter 11. Namely:
${if match_ip{$sender_host_address}{iplsearch;/some/file}...
I have tried the following in the mail acl:
accept logwrite = some text
condition = ${if match_ip{$sender_host_address} \
{iplsearch;/path/to/whitelist.hosts}}
Where: whitelist.hosts contains exactly one line, containing a single
simple IP4 address, ala:
12.34.56.78: some descriptive text
The result of this code is to accept EVERY host that connects. (As
indicated by the message written to the main log. Basically any random
IP satisfies the match_ip condition. I hope someone can describe which
part of the condition I have misread in the manual:
a) match_ip
b) iplsearch
c) the file contents
