Subject: [Exim] bug with warn?
While doing some tests on a 4.30 installation (MacOSX 10.3.2) to
check the behaviour of warn statements with a temporary failing
condition (in this case a callout) I came across what seems a bug.
Namely I have missing some log outputs from unconditional warn
statements.
This is the relevant acl section (don't look at the logic, this was
only for testing):

warn    set acl_c7      = 0


warn    !sender_domains = aol.com : yahoo.com : netscape.net
         verify          = sender/callout=30s,random
         set acl_c7      = 2
#       set acl_c7      = 0


warn    log_message     = (before) acl_c7 = $acl_c7


warn    !sender_domains = aol.com : yahoo.com : netscape.net
         !verify         = sender/callout=30s,random
         log_message     = callout failed
         set acl_c7      = 7
         set acl_m2 = YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS: $sender_address_local_part
COULD NOT BE VERIFIED, CHECK IT AND RESEND\n


warn    log_message     = (after) acl_c7 = $acl_c7



When called for the first recipient in an SMTP session I get the two
lines (before and after) that log the value of acl_c7. After a RSET a
new MAIL FROM and RCPT TO command I only get:

2004-02-23 22:37:37 H=(ti.humph.com) [10.0.2.2] Warning: ACL "warn"
statement skipped: condition test deferred: Could not complete sender
verify callout
2004-02-23 22:37:37 H=(ti.humph.com) [10.0.2.2] Warning: (after) acl_c7 = 0


where has (before) gone?

My experience tells me that I am missing something... can you spot my
mistake or is it really a bug?

Thanks
