If you have a lot of them, build them into a dbm database with exim_dbmbuild.
You can put other stuff in the same file, to benefit from the caching of the
lookup. We have all sorts of rubbish, e.g.
sd385: uid=20897 gid=20897 home=/u2.bristol/s02/sd385 mailname=D.H.Sheryn
maildomain=city.ac.uk
in ours for precisely the same reason.
