Subject: [Exim] Creating a message for delivery based off of an action in an ACL
I'm wondering if there's any way to have Exim generate a message and deliver
it based off of something in an ACL.

For example (I have exiscan patched in), if I scan for a virus and find one,
I currently just have it set to deny the message. However, it would be nice
to be able to also have a message generated and delivered to the recipients
notifying them that a message was denied because it contained a virus
(specifying who the message was from in case they wish to contact them or
whatever).

I was also wondering if there is a command I can put in ACLs, routers, and
transports that would be sort of like a "do" command, where it does the
stuff to the right, but it doesn't affect the acceptance of the ACL or
whatever. This would be useful for example, in routers when delivering a
message and someone wants to implement their own type of quota support and
needs to insert data to MySQL, or for other types of data tracking (logging
every message sent through and their spam score for example - to see if
certain users send spam, etc...).

I'm sure that log file parsing could be done, but it would be nice if it was
done inline rather than running a parser on a log file.

I'm pretty sure there isn't such a feature, so any comments about if anyone
else would like a feature such as this and how they think it should function
would be great (I think I might try to add this myself - exiscan patch is
useful :))

Eli.
