Betreff: [exim] spamd_address *has* to be an IP address?
Hello *,

my own stupidity or unability to read/understand the documentation? (exim 4.63)

    spamd_address = ssl.schlittermann.de 783


failed with 'network unreachable' (in the exim log) when exim tried to connect the spamd
server.

    spamd_address = 212.80.235.130 783 


works.

The error message is somewhat confusing. And: I didn't understand from
the spec, that it has to be an *IP address*... And I do not see if this
option gets expanded (because I'd like to use a dnsdb lookup to get the
IP address).


    Best regards from Dresden
