Peter,

The way I was thinking of doing it would be to export the results of
exims rbl lookups into variables (each rbl domain in a seperate
variable) and then use a perl-enhanced smartuser director to make the
rejection decision. That way, it can be as fine as a per-user basis.
The problem with doing it in rbl_domains itself is that the lookup is
done before you know what user and/or domain the mail is coming for.
Its done during the initial TCP connection setup. So unless you have
one exim instance (or one IP address) for each customer, and you can
check what customer the mail is destined for on that basis, I don't
think your plan will work.

Yours,

Gary
