So that's the "more" option, set to false.

There are two easy ways to find this out. There exist many less easy
ways, but they involve a little effort.

Option 1:
Find where you unpacked the Exim source. Go into that unpacked source,
into the 'doc' subdirectory, and look at 'spec.txt' with your favourite
text-viewer. 'less' is my preferred viewer -- nice easy searches.
Then search for the string 'no_more'.
'spec.txt' is the plain-text version of The Exim Specification

Option 2:
Using a web-browser (or favoured equivalent), go to
<http://www.exim.org/>, select "Documentation and FAQs" in the top-left
frame (if using a browser which doesn't display frame views, then it's
'toc' followed by 'index'). Then select "The Exim Specification" from
the main frame. Then try searching any of the various indexes, or the
main panel, for information about the "more" option. Eg, section 20,
"Generic options common to both directors and routers".

Each and every match in The Exim Specification gives nice useful
information about its function. With some repetition.

Option 2 involves knowing that "no_" means "set this boolean to be
false" and then searching for the real option, perhaps knowing a bit
about how Exim is structured.

Option 1 relies upon "no_more" not being a common string in English and
quickly reveals a lot of information.
