Are you actually calling/referencing your defined acl in one of the acl_smtp_xxxx directives in the main section of the runtime configuration? Such as: acl_smtp_rcpt = acl_smtp_mail or acl_smtp_data = acl_smtp_mail For troubleshooting the acid test to see what is happening would be to run a debug session on the command line (here pretending to be from a gmail IP): exim -d -bh 209.85.229.27 giving it the normal smtp commands one at at time such as: helo . mail from: <> rcpt to: [email protected] data This should show what is/is not going on. The logs may well have useful information too. -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
