You can include another ACL unconditionally with the "acl =
other_acl_name" condition
<http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-access_control_lists.html#SECTaclconditions>.

     acl_check_foo:
         accept
             acl = other_acl_name


I don't know of any way to include the other ACL only if it exists. I
guess as the developer of the exim configuration, you are supposed to know
whether the other ACL exists before including it :)

But you might be able to use "warn" and "set" to change the error
(inclusion of a nonexistent ACL) into a warning (which you can ignore) and
a change to a variable value, which you can then use to accept or reject
the command later. So this might work:

     acl_check_foo:
         warn
             set acl_m_accepted = no
             acl = other_acl_name
             set acl_m_accepted = yes


         accept
             condition = ${acl_m_accepted}


Cheers, Chris.
