--- Comment #1 from Jeremy Harris <[email protected]> ---
This falls into two parts.


We had a heuristic looking for IPv4-like strings with not enough elements,
but not one for IPv6.  We can do a "mostly" job on that.


Then, what happens with one come under the list-modifiers "include-unknown"
and "ignore-unknown".

   
https://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-domain_host_address_and_local_part_lists.html
    Section 4.5

"If it encounters a permanent lookup failure in any item in the host list
before it has found a match, Exim treats it as a failure and the default
behavior is as if the host does not match the list. This may not always be what
you want to happen."


and log_selector "unknown_in_list".

   
https://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-log_files.html#SECTlogselector

The docs for the latter need some expansion; they only describe DNS lookup
failures - but it does result in a log line.
