The docs couldn't possibly be more clear.
${map} provides the examples:
${map{a:b:c}{[$item]}}
${map{<- x-y-z}{($item)}}
So I ran them though -be:
root@haven:~# exim4 -be '${map{a:b:c}{[$item]}}'
[a]:[b]:[c]
root@haven:~# exim4 -be '${map{<- x-y-z}{($item)}}'
(x)-(y)-(z)
root@haven:~#
The output on its own explains exactly what it does without even having
to read the rest of the documentation.
The forall/forany documentation is equally clear and concise. I couldn't
write better documentation if you gave me an entire afternoon to come up
with it.
