Hello,

but as I explained: This doesn't work for me. I need nested conditions.
You cannot replace something like

if (whatever) {
    if (somewhat) {
        return true;
    } else {
        if (something) {
            return true;
        } else {
            return false;
        }
    }
} else {
    if (somewhat) {
        return true;
    } else {
        return false;
    }
}


by a simple and-condition.

The final logic in exim would be something like this:

${if  and { \
    { \
        ${if eq{}{} \
            {true} \
            { ${if eq{}{} \
                {true} \
                {false} \
            } } \
        } } \
    } \
    { \
        ${if eq{}{} \
            {true} \
            { ${if eq{}{} \
                {true} \
                {false} \
            } } \
        } } \
    } \
    } \
}


Since the above code does not work, I'm really interessed to see how
else I can "and" these if conditions.

Kind regards
