regex or list?!

In an ACL like:

.ifdef LOCAL_FORBIDDEN_EXTENSIONS
deny
message = '$mime_filename' files are not accepted here
!acl = acl_local_deny_exceptions
condition = ${if match {${uc:$mime_filename}}{[.] *(LOCAL_FORBIDDEN_EXTENSIONS)\$}}
.endif

LOCAL_FORBIDDEN_EXTENSIONS macro is an 'regexp part', so i've to wrote them
like:
LOCAL_FORBIDDEN_EXTENSIONS = ADE|ADP|ASP|BAS|BAT|CAB|CHM|CMD|COM|CPL|CRT|EXE|HLP|HTA|INF|INS|ISP|JS|JSE|LNK|MDB|MDE|MSC|MSI|MSP|MST|PCD|PIF|REG|SCR|SCT|SHB|SHS|URL|VB|VBE|VBS|WS|WSC|WSF|WSH

or is a list, and so i've to wrote them as:

LOCAL_FORBIDDEN_EXTENSIONS = ADE:ADP:ASP:BAS:BAT:CAB:CHM:CMD:COM:CPL:CRT:EXE:HLP:HTA:INF:INS:ISP:JS:JSE:LNK:MDB:MDE:MSC:MSI:MSP:MST:PCD:PIF:REG:SCR:SCT:SHB:SHS:URL:VB:VBE:VBS:WS:WSC:WSF:WSH

Sorry, thanks.

A used macro just replaces the name with the text.
What makes you think a list might be appropriate?

...because i've found in two exim config file (i've setup myself some year
ago) in one the regexp and in other the list mode, without comments or
notes.

The list seems totally wrong to me, but the file with the list was my 'main'
exim file and the file with regexp more or less and experiment. So, i get
confused. ;-)

Regexpis the right one. ok. Sorry for the fuss.
