Yes. Settings within double quotes are subject to a separate escape sequence
interpretation. You have to double the backslashes (except the one at the end
of the line). See sections 6.16 and 6.17 of the spec
(
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.66/doc/html/spec_html/ch06.html#SECTstrings).
That translation is not done in expansion testing mode, because it is done as
part of the configuration file parsing.
