For an MX lookup, both the preference value and the host name are returned for
each record, separated by a space. For an SRV lookup, the priority, weight,
port, and host name are returned for each record, separated by spaces.

An alternate field separator can be specified using a comma after the main
separator character, followed immediately by the field separator.

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.
-.new
Here are some examples of the output format. The first line of each pair is an
LDAP query, and the second is the data that is returned. The attribute called
&%attr1%& has two values, one of them with an embedded comma, whereas
ldap:///o=base??sub?(uid=fred)
objectClass="top" attr1="value1.1,value1,,2" attr2="value two"

You can
make use of Exim's &%-be%& option to run expansion tests and thereby check the
results of LDAP lookups.
The &%extract%& operator in string expansions can be used to pick out
individual fields from data that consists of &'key'&=&'value'& pairs.
-.new
The &%listextract%& operator should be used to pick out individual values
of attributes, even when only a single value is expected.
The doubling of embedded commas allows you to use the returned data as a
comma separated list (using the "<," syntax for changing the input list separator).

are far older, and use one set of semantics. ACLs are newer and when
they were created, the ACL &%condition%& process was given far stricter

When this option is set, the &(smtp)& transport can handle a number of
addresses containing a mixture of different domains provided they all resolve

Exim normally includes both the host name and the IP address in the key it
constructs for indexing retry data after a temporary delivery failure. This
means that when one of several IP addresses for a host is failing, it gets
However, in some dialup environments hosts are assigned a different IP address

For ACLs that are called by an &%acl =%& ACL condition, the message is

If &%message%& is used on a statement that verifies an address, the message
specified overrides any message that is generated by the verification process.
The input files can be in Exim log format or syslog format.
