Aihe: [exim] completely disabling checks for specific options?
hi all,

i reject, successfully, SMTP connections from specific hosts in the
acl_smtp_connect ACL.

per the EXIM-SPEC,

    host_reject_connection
    ...
    "This option is obsolete, and retained only for backward compatibility, 
because nowadays the ACL specified by acl_smtp_connect can also reject incoming 
connections immediately"


on an incoming connect, however, i notice in my (debug) log:

23991 set_process_info: 23991 handling incoming connection from A.A.A.A
[XX.XX.XX.XX]
23991 host in host_reject_connection? no (option unset)

although this is a relatively 'inexpensive' check, in general, how does one
disable the CHECK for a 'host list' option?

    host_reject_connection=no


of course, doesn't do it, and

    host_reject_connection=


still causes the check to execute ...

thx!
