           Summary: spec 22.6 redirection list items (:blackhole:)
                    buggy/misleading
           Product: Exim
           Version: 4.69
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: bug
          Priority: low
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: nigel@???
        ReportedBy: Lutz.Pressler@???

4.69 (and pre 4.70 20090712 checkout, behaviour tested with this version)
contains:
  22.6 Special items in redirection lists
  [...]
  * Sometimes you want to throw away mail to a particular local part.
  [...]
    Warning: If :blackhole: appears anywhere in a redirection list, no delivery
    is done for the original local part, even if other redirection items are
    present. If you are generating a multi-item list (for example, by reading a
    database) and need the ability to provide a no-op item, you must use /dev/
    null.


   * An attempt to deliver a particular address can be deferred or forced to
    fail by redirection items of the form


    :defer:
    :fail:


    respectively. When a redirection list contains such an item, it applies to
    the entire redirection; any other items in the list are ignored
    (:blackhole: is different).


If I dont't miss anything, the ":blackhole: is different" contradicts the
warning in the previous item and should be removed.
