whoops, yes right, thank you.
I have corret this and the configuration error went away.
Now I'm sorry to say that I'am still unable to get it started.
In few words what I have done:
I expanded the following string with "exim -be"
"${lookup ldap {ldap://mailserv.fh-giessen.de/ou=groups,o=FH%20Giessen,c=DE?cn?sub?(mail=testlist*)}{$value@???}fail}"
It is working pretty good I receive the expected output.
Next I set the headers_rewrite option of one of my transports using exactly the same
lookup definition which I had tested before (see above).
It looks like this (I keep it now simple in one line):
headers_rewrite = *@*fh.giesssen.de "${lookup ldap {ldap://mailserv.fh-giessen.de/ou=groups,o=FH%20Giessen,c=DE?cn?sub?(mail=testlist*)}{$value@???}fail}" t
I don't get a configuration error when I restart Exim, but when I try to deliver a mail by the use of this director
Exim writes the following error output to his mainlog:

I suppose that the Exim parser is working under different terms in this context (by comparison to "exim -be").
Stupidly I havn't any practical idea at the moment.
Could it be that this have something to do with ldap quoting ?
I did some tests with "quote_ldap" but with no success.
