Thanks for the reply, but no the other bounce options did not affect
this.

The problem seems to stem from the fact that the above is part of the
ACL system, and that does not seem to take any notice of the bounce
options. When a message is rejected by an ACL the default bounce message
format is used.

When a bounce message, such as an unknown user, is created because exim
has dropped through the routers then the bounce options come into
effect, and the original message and/or its body will be included
depending on the options used.

I guess that if an option like 'bounce_message_file' is in use it may
include expansion variables which are not available if the bounce was
caused by, for example, a RCPT ACL. I would have thought though that
options relating to the bounce message size could still be enforced?
