[exim4] Fresh config of lan smtp server question

[Harry Putnam]

Setup:
Running 64bit Jessie
Exim4-daemon-heavy pkg installed

I'm working my way thru the `dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config' question
answer session.

It must be about the 2nd screen where it asks you the address of any
hosts you expect to accept mail from.

dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config:

│ Please enter a semicolon-separated list of IP addresses. The Exim SMTP |
│ listener daemon will listen on all IP addresses listed here. |

│ An empty value will cause Exim to listen for connections on all │
│ available network interfaces. │

[...]

Since my lan IPs sometimes change I'd rather give a network name.
Just making sure that will work as well as individual IPs.

The wording of the question makes it sound as if only exact HOST IP
addresses are acceptable.

I would like to give two networks as answer:
10.0.0.0/24
192.168.2.0/24

And, of course, I would like to filter out any others so don't want it blank.

Can anyone tell me if that network notation will work, or will it gum
up the works?

Yes, it works. Afterwards, look in /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf to
see the answers you have given. This value corresponds to:

dc_relay_nets='10.0.0.0/24:192.168.2.0/24'

If that's what you have, you entered it correctly. You can edit this
file directly and run:

update-exim4.conf
