Do you mean that if I say

    sender_net_accept_relay = "192.168.12.0/24:/some/file"


rather than

    sender_net_accept_relay = "192.168.12.0/24:lsearch;/some/file"


then it might work instead of being a syntax error?

Yes, "spec.txt" mentions that, but is silent about when the file lookup
happens. For my purposes, it needs to be while the TCP connection is
active, not when exim starts.

For now, I just need a list of IP host addresses (with /32 prefix
lengths). I don't need a way of handling arbitrary prefix lengths/netmasks
in the file lookup, but I do neet the lookup to happen when incoming SMTP
connections are received, rather than when the config file is first
parsed.

Hmm, I think I could I use an lsearch lookup in sender_host_accept_relay
to so what I want. Why didn't I think of a *host* rather than *net*
variable before?
