Oh, rats! I updated the 4.10 manual to discuss this point in the ACLs,
and forgot to put in a cross-reference at 21.6. Noted for updating. The
information is in section 37.8:
If "message" is used on a statement that verifies an address, the message |
specified overrides any message that is generated by the verification |
process. However, the original message is available in the variable |
$acl_verify_message, so you can incorporate it into your message if you |
wish. In particular, if you want the text from ":fail:" items in redirect |
routers to be passed back as part of the SMTP response, you should either |
not use a "message" modifier, or make use of $acl_verify_message. |
