Sorry that the mail was so confusing. This is a patch against
exiscan-acl-4.22-12 to apply it to the exim-4.23 source tree.
I was just missing Toms excellent work and his quick reaction time, and
coulddn't wait to test the brand new exim with exiscan-acl...
Do the following (replacing fetch by curl, wget or whatever you have on your
system):
fetch '
http://duncanthrax.net/exiscan-acl/exiscan-acl-4.22-12.patch'
fetch '
http://www.exim.org/pipermail/exim-users/Week-of-Mon-20030915/059928.html'
sed -e '1,/^--- .* begins here ---$/d' -e '/^--- .* ends here ---$/,$d' \
-e 's/"/"/g' -e 's/^$/ /' 059928.html > exiscan-acl-4.22-12.patch.patch
patch -p0 < exiscan-acl-4.22-12.patch.patch
patch -p1 -d /path/to/exim/sources/exim-4.23 < exiscan-acl-4.22-12.patch
and voila, you have an exim-4.23 source tree with an exiscan-acl-4.22-12 patch applied.
If you have a production system, please, wait till Tom is back:

On the other hand, If you have a test system, go ahead!
And, if you've waited for exiscan-acl-4.23-12 before testing, don't forget:
