Re: [exim] Weird errors with conditions

A string (or even a "fail") is not a condition you can use in "if". If you
want to check if the lookup succeeded you have to use a condition, e.g.
"eq":

${if eq {${lookup ...{1}{0}}} {1}}

"condition" in an ACL only expects something like 1, 0, yes or no. You can
rewrite it like that:

${if eq {$recipients_count}{1} \
{${lookup mysql{MYSQL_Q_SPAMFILTER} {1}}}}

Exim is not a compiler. And your problem was totally unrelated to braces.
