Are you talking about local_scan() here? I assume so.

string_sprintf() uses pooled store which is rolled back between
multiple messages that arrive in the same SMTP connection. Using it more
than once makes no difference. However, in the next release of Exim
(which will be out in a few minutes) I have made it possible to use
non-rolled-back memory.
