+The supported DNS record types are A, CNAME, MX, NS, PTR, SPF, SRV, TLSA and TXT,
and, when Exim is compiled with IPv6 support, AAAA (and A6 if that is also
configured). If no type is given, TXT is assumed. When the type is PTR,
the data can be an IP address, written as normal; inversion and the addition of
&%strlen%&, which gives the length of a string.

+.cindex "expansion" "extracting list elements by number"
+.cindex "&%listextract%&" "extract list elements by number"
+.cindex "list" "extracting elements by number"
+The <&'number'&> argument must consist entirely of decimal digits,
+apart from an optional leading minus,
+and leading and trailing white space (which is ignored).
+
+After expansion, <&'string1'&> is interpreted as a list, colon-separated by
+default, but the separator can be changed in the usual way.
+
+The first field of the list is numbered one.
+If the number is negative, the fields are
+counted from the end of the list, with the rightmost one numbered -1.
+The numbered element of the list is extracted and placed in &$value$&,
+then <&'string2'&> is expanded as the result.
+
+If the modulus of the
+number is zero or greater than the number of fields in the string,
+the result is the expansion of <&'string3'&>.
+
+For example:
+.code
+${listextract{2}{x:42:99}}
+.endd
+yields &"42"&, and
+.code
+${listextract{-3}{<, x,42,99,& Mailer,,/bin/bash}{result: $value}}
+.endd
+yields &"result: 99"&.
+
+If {<&'string3'&>} is omitted, an empty string is used for string3.
+If {<&'string2'&>} is also omitted, the value that was
+extracted is used.
+You can use &`fail`& instead of {<&'string3'&>} as in a string extract.
