[...] Hello, there was a bug in exim 4.99 up to 4.99-4, expand_string was not available for local_scan. Also the ABI changed (expand_string is a macro now) and the API also changed: -extern int smtp_fflush(void); +extern int smtp_fflush(BOOL); As a side-effect of the change to expand_string() incorrect signedness of the args to expand_string() (signed char *) causes a compilation error. exim4 4.99-5 and newer bumped LOCAL_SCAN_ABI_VERSION_MINOR this version cannot be installed together with sa-exim 4.2.1-22 cu Andreas
