Hi,
thanks to Philip who posted some code yesterday, my eyes opened for
new possibilities which more than often don't work :-)
I'm running Exim 4.14
I would like to set the message_size_limit in the main part of my config
file (before the ACL's) to do a lookup based on the sender address.
I've tried the following:
message_size_limit =
${lookup{$sender_address}lsearch*{/path/to/file}}
and in the file
# Max size allowed by sender
me@???:10k
*:2M
just for testing.
The address in the file is legal.
Then I sent myself a test message that should have been denied. The
logs
indicate that the from was indeed correct, but the message was not
denied.
What did I miss?
The reason for this is approach is 2-fold: I'm getting real large valid
mails from clients that need to be accepted (larger than I wish to have
the default value) and I'm getting real large nuisance mail as well from
others I don't want to block totally, but I want to reject their mail
before travelling to my server. Blocks on servers won't work as much
of
the unwanted mail is generated by dial-up ISP clients.
Thanks
Nico
