Author: Brent Clark Date: To: Exim User's Mailing List Subject: [exim] wrong ACL
Hi all
I started reading the excellent tips from the Exim Wiki (Thanks to those who contribute), I just implemented the
"HELO is an IP Address", but I think I placed it in the wrong ACL (acl_check_rcpt).
So my question is, can this go in any other acl, and if so, which one. In chapter 39 of the Exim Doc I see that there is
a acl_smtp_helo ACL, would it be ok to put it there. Maybe the contributor for the Wiki, could share some clarity on this.
Heres my test.
