If you can assume that the MD5 passwords are always the same length, and
the plain passwords are never that length, you could test the length of
the password. You would have to appear to do the lookup twice (use a
macro to save writing it twice) but because Exim caches the most recent
lookup, it would not actually do it twice. I have not got time to work
this through, but something like
${if eq {${length:LOOKUP}}{32}
{
the required condition for MD5
}
{
the required condition for not MD5
}
}
