Hi !!
The current Exim ACL is completly useless, it needs to be completly
rewritten. It will be easy to do it using Meng's spfd, as soon as
Hmm... So if I get the drift, that would then turn the ACL into
a simpler call-out to the spfd for resolution kind of mechanism, right?
a callout plus parsing returned data.
Meng has a spfd that suppots unix domain sockets I will rewrite the
acl.
Hmmm. OK. But is spfd's UNIX domain sockets really an issue?
yes, because now exim cannot use spfd. If spfd could create an
unix domain socket then exim could talk to it via ${readsocket}
I thought it was new TXT record format/argument processing.
exim acl system is per se totally unable to fully process the
level of parsing complexity that spf now needs.
I poked my nose into spfd, and it has parts like the following
from Mail::SPF::Query-1.7pre3. It _looks_ like it is supposed
to support UNIX domain sockets... :-) I confess I've not fired
it up and tested it yet.
# ./spfd -path=/var/spfd # unix domain socket
looks like Meng has added socket support in last version, will
try to have an acl ready this weekend :)

Best regards ...
I Think....therefore I'm OVER QUALIFIED!!!!!!!!!
