Message modifier on a QUIT ACL. See "40.8 The QUIT ACL" in The Exim
Specification (spec.txt, supplied with Exim, is a plaintext copy, or see
the website www.exim.org for the HTML edition).

The rest of section 40 will help with explaining this.

Traditionally, the "smtp_banner" option; it's an expanded string, so you
can use lookups, etc. Or, for consistency with QUIT, use a message
modifier on a connect ACL.

domains = /etc/exim4/relay_domains

See also "10.4. An lsearch file is not an out-of-line list" in the Spec.
Then also "10.3. File names in lists" :)

Depending upon what you're doing, would it be better to use existence of
the file in the directory as your trigger though, and use a dsearch
lookup?
