Right, that's a useful pointer. :)
But, this Exim instance is in the middle of two mail servers; it processes
email and weeds out the spam.
So I need to ask the final destination whether it accepts the email address,
and if so, store it in a local database and tell Exim somehow that the
recipient was accepted. Like callout, but using a more .. "flexible"
storage mechanism.
Could you point me to a relevant chapter(s) to do just that?
Thanks,
Morten
