Hi Tom,
its my understanding that you need mysql to return a * BUT your matching on
the domain.
Your SQL: select user from reject_users where host like '${key}'
you want user to be * but as your doing a LIKE match on the key, that part
of the data needs to be "%.test.com".
Oh, and you might need to reverse the where clause to get it to work:
SELECT user FROM reject_users WHERE '${key}' LIKE host
as the host is supplying the pattern, not ${key}... be wary of matching
multiple rows and thus multiple users in this fashion.
HTH
Regards,
Mark.

Howdy,
I under stand that, my problem is that I dont want SQL to do the
matching. To quote the exim manual at exim.org
Partial matching is implemented by doing a series of separate lookups
using keys constructed by modifying the original subject key. This means
that it can be used with any of the single-key lookup types, provided
that the special partial-matching keys beginning with `*.' are included
in the data file. Keys in the file that do not begin with `*.' are
matched only by unmodified subject keys when partial matching is in use.
Well it seems that this is not working with partial-mysql.
So my question is probably more like is partial-mysql meant to work ?
Thanx for your time.
