i exscuse for my behavior.

As far as i know there are *JUST* ip-adresses in the list. As least, there
should be.

But if this IS the problem it would be reproducable by just entering a host -
and not an ip-adress - into the file. But this does not reproduce the error.

But what really disturbs me is the fact, that no reason is logged into the
logs. Shouldn't exim log a reason? Phil said that it might be an effect of a
missing log_error in the acl-definition. But i added one to every deny.

This is what i really wanted to report with my mail from today. Sorry for the
annoyance.
