Subject: [exim] aliases, :fail:, include text from a file?
Can't seem to figure out the best way to do this; searching the mailing
lists has at least told me :include: won't work. What's the cleanest way
to include the text from a file in a :fail: from /etc/aliases ?

E.g., instead of:

job-1234: :fail: Sorry, the job has been filled

to:

job-1234: :fail: < /etc/mail/jobfilled.txt

Basically for things like closed jobs (among other one-time tear off
aliases) we want to reply with a nicely formatted message, and not have
to try and keep the entire text in /etc/aliases.

Any ideas?
