I have updated exim from the default to 4.8.30.

I wan to enable DNSDB lookups so I can have exim query DNS systems. I saw on this thread that it must be compiled in.

How can I go about that when using custom build?

Thanks, I had seen that page before. With Debian I could not figure out rpmbuild.
 
Too bad it is so difficult to add it to direct admin. Recompiling exim is not something I would want to be doing on a production box.

For anyone in search of this info. there is a page about enabling dnsdb with exim available online.

I was able to get mine updated using the steps in the guild, seems OK so far. I needed the DNSDB because I am adding SRS to my install and I do not was the sender envelope being rewritten unless the sending domain is actually publishing SPF TXT records.

So with the DNSDB available I can check if the sending domain publishes the SPF info and act based on that.
