--- Comment #5 from Marten Lehmann <lehmann@???> ---
I'm not really happy with the macro version. It's just a workaround, not a
solid or elegant solution.
I'd suggest to align mysql_servers and others with the spamd_address directive
(see
https://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-content_scanning_at_acl_time.html):
Besides a pure list of hosts (and optional ports), there are options which may
be specified.
This is how a list of spamd services may look like:
spamd_address = 127.0.0.1 783 pri=2 : 10.0.0.55 783 pri=1
This is how the same idea might be applied for aliases in a list of database
sources:
mysql_servers = db.mail.company.com/config/readonly-user/pw alias=config : \
db.mail.company.com/metrics/readwrite-user/pw alias=metrics
A lookup might use them like this:
${lookup mysql,servers=config {SELECT ...} }
${lookup mysql,servers=metrics {UPDATE ...} }
