erm, that's something left over from an Exim 3.x config file which I
used to create the above example - my bad ;-(

I can do but I cannot obviously see how to do string concatenation in to
'data ='  (have you tried lloking up how to do this string concat in the
Exim documentation?)

     data = "# Exim Filter \n\n" ${lookup mysql{SELECT rule FROM users LEFT JOIN domains \
         ON domains.id=users.domain_id LEFT JOIN filters \
         ON users.id=filters.user_id WHERE
    domains.domain='${quote_mysql:$domain}' \
         AND users.username='${quote_mysql:$local_part}' \
         AND domains.active=1 \
         AND users.active=1 \
         AND filters.active=1 ORDER BY filters.id ASC LIMIT 100}}



Fixing the order of the filters and a sensible maximum is trivial with a
bit of SQL.

Good ;-)
