OK cool, thanks for that.

Does anyone already have an ACL that does this perchance? After say 50
messages have been received from an "external" host I'd like them to
see an error such as "Too many messsages for a non trusted host" (off
the top of my head .. ).

The actual line should have been:

${lookup{mask:$sender_host_address/24}lsearch{/local/exim/etc/exim-priviledged}{yes}{no}}

Sorry I had pasted it in from an older version of my configure.

Muchos danke,

Doug
