I thought about this, but the list checking isn't in the same manner that
exim normally checks lists for which is why I did it this way. Normal exim
lists also accept *, which this does not.

I spoke to Philip in private email and I belive he prefered != (I originally
had =! since it was just a tad easier to code for). He also agrees with me
that this isn't a list in the normal exim sense as well.

Basically, it's either "Yes, I'll accept for this result" or "No, I will not
accept for this result (!= notation)" But from what you stated already, you
understand this part.

This doesn't change any functionality that's already in place, just extends
it so it's backwards compatible with older config files.
