題目: [exim-dev] Unexpected expansion
In IRC a user (running 4.75 + patches for 4.76) was asking if the
following should work:

senders = *@+some_domain_list

Is there anything in the documentation (I couldn't find it) that says
that this expansion should or should not be expected to expand? I
added the following to my data acl on my 4.76 system:

acl_check_content:
  warn    senders        = *@+yahoo_domains
          message        = Yeah, found it


where yahoo_domains is defined as:
domainlist yahoo_domains = yahoo.com.hk : yahoo.com.tw

It matches in the following test where the envelope sender is
"tlyons@???"

>>> using ACL "acl_check_content"
>>> processing "warn"
>>> check senders = *@+yahoo_domains
>>> yahoo.com.tw in "yahoo.com.hk : yahoo.com.tw"? yes (matched "yahoo.com.tw")
>>> yahoo.com.tw in "+yahoo_domains"? yes (matched "+yahoo_domains")
>>> tlyons@??? in "*@+yahoo_domains"? yes (matched "*@+yahoo_domains")
>>> warn: condition test succeeded


Repeated the test, and it properly did not match where sender is
"tlyons@???"

>>> using ACL "acl_check_content"
>>> processing "warn"
>>> check senders = *@+yahoo_domains
>>> gmail.com in "yahoo.com.hk : yahoo.com.tw"? no (end of list)
>>> gmail.com in "+yahoo_domains"? no (end of list)
>>> tlyons@??? in "*@+yahoo_domains"? no (end of list)
>>> warn: condition test failed


He then noted that "senders = *@+domainlist : *@foo.com" doesn't seem
to do that same expansion (later figured out it was simply he was
missing a long wrapped line :-). I added it (and also reversed the
order to make sure that it would process each part of the list) then I
tested and it did work:

>>> using ACL "acl_check_content"
>>> processing "warn"
>>> check senders = *@foo.com : *@+yahoo_domains
>>> yahoo.com.tw in "foo.com"? no (end of list)
>>> yahoo.com.tw in "yahoo.com.hk : yahoo.com.tw"? yes (matched "yahoo.com.tw")
>>> yahoo.com.tw in "+yahoo_domains"? yes (matched "+yahoo_domains")
>>> tlyons@??? in "*@foo.com : *@+yahoo_domains"? yes (matched "*@+yahoo_domains")
>>> warn: condition test succeeded


My basic questions are:
1. Is it expected that this expansion should occur (expand a
domainlist with that one local_part to make a new list) ?
2. Is it documented anywhere? If no, should it be?
3. Or is this unexpected? I have to admin that it did surprise me.
