It is similar to + match_domain, etc. It must be followed by two argument strings. The first + (after expansion) must be an IP address or an empty string. The second + (after expansion) is a restricted host list that can match only an IP + address, not a host name. For example: + + ${if match_ip{$sender_host_address}{1.2.3.4:5.6.7.8}{...}{...}} + + The specific types of host list item that are permitted in the list are + shown below. Consult the manual section on host lists for further + details. + + . An IP address, optionally with a CIDR mask. + + . A single asterisk matches any IP address. + + . An empty item matches only if the IP address is empty. This could be + useful for testing for a locally submitted message or one from specific + hosts in a single test such as + + ${if match_ip{$sender_host_address}{:4.3.2.1:...}{...}{...}} + + where the first item in the list is the empty string. + + . The item @[] matches any of the local host's interface addresses. + + . Lookups are assumed to be "net-" style lookups, even if "net-" is not + specified. Thus, the following are equivalent: + + ${if match_ip{$sender_host_address}{lsearch;/some/file}... + ${if match_ip{$sender_host_address}{net-lsearch;/some/file}... + + You do need to specify the "net-" prefix if you want to specify a + specific address mask, for example, by using "net24-". + Version 4.51 ------------ |
