3.2.11 Include

Syntax:
include <file>
Example:
include /etc/fido/areas

You can include other files into your config file. For example if you would like to have different config parts, you can include a file and (via cron job or manually) change the content of this file without changing the rest of the config. Additionally you can split your config in different parts. So you can have your fileareas definition in another file than your msgareas definition. This gives your the ability to have some survey about your config.

This statement can be repeated. But dont make recursive includes. eg include a file which includes another which includes the first. Although this will be detected and fixed many times, there is a chance that it will not be detected one time.
