You should change your perl routine so that it does not do the existence
check. When the perl routine returns undef the require_files precondition
does nothing so the router accepts the address despite the file not
existing. When the perl routine returns a path the require_files
precondition is redundant because you've already checked that the file
exists. If you just return the string then Exim will do the existence
check, and if it fails the router will not accept the address and
address verification will fail, which is what you want.
