Need ACL variables that would reset themselves at each RCPT command, but that
would be remembered when eventually routing the address.

They would reduce the amount of database queries. For example, I’m writing a
custom Exim configuration for a mailing list server, and when a message comes,
I look to what list it is being sent, and whether the list can allow this
particular message. And when routing the address, I have to query the DB again
to determine which machine serves this particular list. That could have been
done in one query, the result of which would have been remembered in a variable
(say, $acl_r_something) to which routers would be able to refer. The ‘r’
thus stands for both ‘recipient’ and ‘router’.

TIA.
