Hi,


I upgraded from Exim 4.62 to 4.65 yesterday. At 08:00 today I started
seeing an issue.

from the mainlog

{ <                                             {${if

}                                   }        {yes}{no}}": invalid integer 
"08" inside "and{...}" condition

it seems as if "08" is how being interpreted (technically correctly) as a
invalid
octal integer rather than a decimal integer. However the snippet in the
configure file causing this was borrowed from the web (I haven't got the
original URL
to hand). I am concerned that other users
who borrowed
in a similar way may see similar problems. For speed I have just
downgraded back to 4.62. I suspect it is easy enough to change the
configuration file fragment and will look at it later today.

Cheers,
