           Summary: dnslists!=x.x.x.x issue with multiple RRs
           Product: Exim
           Version: 4.63
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: bug
          Priority: medium
         Component: ACLs

I'm not sure whether this is the desired behavior or not for dnslists, or if
something should be added to choose the behavior. At any rate, the docs should
be updated to specify what happens here.

Consider for example:
deny dnslists = combined.njabl.org!=127.0.0.3
And an IP address with multiple listings:
$ host 78.218.161.200.combined.njabl.org
78.218.161.200.combined.njabl.org has address 127.0.0.9
78.218.161.200.combined.njabl.org has address 127.0.0.3

In exim 4.63, we will not deny because 127.0.0.3 was returned and 127.0.0.3 is
in the exclude list. However, I had expected to deny because 127.0.0.9 was also
returned and that is not excluded.
