Hello,
I have the following line in my local_sender_blacklist file, which is
included as a blacklisted address list:
^.*@s\\d+\\..+\\.ru
(The reason is that a huge amount of spam comes from addresses
following that pattern and not all of the sending IPs are included in
RBLs. I've tried all sorts

included files be doubly escaped or something?
You already have backslashes in front of the RE backslashes
(eg "\d"). That would be for protecting against Exim expanding,

I am responsible for a cluster of mail servers that I blindly upgraded to Exim
4.97. Previously, the message IDs were 16 or so bytes long and fit nicely in
