Hi Adam,
thank you for your reply. I tried your suggestion of swapping the two
parts. Nevertheless I still obtain the same behaviour: every message is
always rejected with an error about the maximum allowed length.
Looking at the docs, if my interpretation is correct, it does not matter
which order is followed in a deny verb, as far as there is only one
"message" modifier. From section 20 of
https://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-access_control_lists.html
:
" [...] ACL modifiers appear mixed in with conditions in ACL statements.
Some of them specify actions that are taken as the conditions for a
statement are checked; others specify text for messages that are used
when access is denied or a warning is generated.
[...]
For the deny verb, on the other hand, it is always the last message
modifier that is used, because all the conditions must be true for
rejection to happen. Specifying more than one message modifier does not
make sense, and the message can even be specified after all the conditions"
I'm including the whole exim configuration file in case someone wishes
to take a look:

Thanks,
Quaquero
