I've only looked at 'acl_smtp_notquit'. Where is 'smtp_notquit_acl' ?

But FWIW, it can easily be 'both'.

EG: the first is a reserved name, the second can, as with any other
acl_XXX_yyy be the label of the admin-created customized acl clause it
is mapped to.

As used in:

acl_smtp_connect = acl_r_connect

acl_smtp_helo    = acl_r_helo


acl_smtp_mail    = acl_r_mail


acl_smtp_rcpt    = acl_r_rcpt


In this case, by changing the 'r' to a 't' I select a 'testing' acl
instead of the 'running' acl. Both sets exist in the configure file.

A 'testing' acl may be a simple 'accept' for acl_smtp_connect or may be
heavily loaded with detailed warn verbs to logwrite and log_message to
aid in debugging more complex phases.

YMMV,
