The next two lines are concerned with &'ident'& callbacks, as defined by RFC
1413 (hence their names):
-.new
.code
rfc1413_hosts = *
rfc1413_query_timeout = 0s
.endd
-.wen
These settings cause Exim to avoid ident callbacks for all incoming SMTP calls.
Few hosts offer RFC1413 service these days; calls have to be
terminated by a timeout and this needlessly delays the startup
server to use. But when you need to do a lookup with a list of servers that is
different than the default list (maybe different order, maybe a completely
different set of servers), the SERVERS parameter allows you to specify this
-alternate list.
+alternate list (colon-separated).
Here is an example of an LDAP query in an Exim lookup that uses some of these
values. This is a single line, folded to fit on the page:
strings, each preceded by the attribute name and an equals sign. Within the
quotes, the quote character, backslash, and newline are escaped with
backslashes, and commas are used to separate multiple values for the attribute.
+.new
+Any commas in attribute values are doubled
+(permitting treatment of the values as a comma-separated list).
+.wen
Apart from the escaping, the string within quotes takes the same form as the
output when a single attribute is requested. Specifying no attributes is the
same as specifying all of an entry's attributes.
&%attr1%& has two values, whereas &%attr2%& has only one value:
.code
ldap:///o=base?attr1?sub?(uid=fred)
-value1.1, value1.2
+value1.1,value1.2
ldap:///o=base?attr2?sub?(uid=fred)

-attr1="value1.1, value1.2" attr2="value two"
+attr1="value1.1,value1.2" attr2="value two"
ldap:///o=base??sub?(uid=fred)
-objectClass="top" attr1="value1.1, value1.2" attr2="value two"
+objectClass="top" attr1="value1.1,value1.2" attr2="value two"
