any good abstract solution for action upon file change?

Hello guys, I'm new to this list and new to the cfengine either. Working out ways to deploy the community version, I'm getting stuck with limitations sourced by "classes not variables" paradigm. For example, currently I have such a case for a mailserver controls: bundle agent mailmaps { vars:
