Hrm.. My host_accept_relay is IP address based - no hostnames or
domains.. It contains a negation of a wildcard, but at the end, and I
beleive I can leave that off to accomplish the same result.. Byt the key
thing is that it contains IP _networks_, not individual addresses..


Say it contained:

10.34.0.0/18 : 192.168.5.0/24 : 192.168.19.0/24

If I put that in a file, one per line, and used

host_accept_relay = net-lsearch;/some/file

${lookup{$sender_host_address}net-lsearch{/some/file}{yes}{no}}

That seems like it would work.

Am I missing anything?
