What ACL is that ?
I want to test various things in ACL Data. However I want to omit one
occasional email sender from some of the tests in ACL Data. Hence the
attempt to 'jump out' of ACL Data with a targeted accept.

Agreed. That is what I already do, right from Day 1. Like you write, no
restarts, just change the files and carry-on normally.
However I still have the problem of:-
accept condition = ${if eq{$acl_m2}{alpha@???}}
not working. Is my syntax correct, do you know?
I can implement your suggestion:-
condition = ${lookup {$sender_address}wildlsearch{[~/bad_file]}
later on.

I am conscious it is an old version and look forward to Centos 6.1 with
a later version of Exim including DKIM. The Centos team do a wonderful
job of applying all the patches so security should not be a problem.
