Subject: [exim] Preventing some users from sending local mail
The sample Exim config file accepts local mail
across the board with the following acl
statement:

    accept hosts = :


I would like to deny some users on the local
system the ability to send local mail using
something like:

    exim -t < my_mail_msg


I would think that would be pretty easy to
accomplish by inserting an additional ACL
statement before the one above that looked
something like this:

    deny hosts   = :
         senders = ^.*local_user_name.*


I must be missing something as it is not
working. Can anyone set me straight? Thanks
for any input.
