My understanding is the source is

doc/doc-docbook/spec.xfpt ( https://code.exim.org/exim/exim/src/commit/2045ec00087a44a1c012b31107258d1ed80eedfb/doc/doc-docbook/spec.xfpt#L8238-L8240 )
Lines 8238 to 8240 in 2045ec0 ( https://code.exim.org/exim/exim/src/commit/2045ec00087a44a1c012b31107258d1ed80eedfb )

(For MySQL and PostgreSQL, the global option need not be set if all queries contain their own server information &-- see section &<<SECTspeserque>>&.)

What do you mean by that? Doesn't Lookup types ( https://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-file_and_database_lookups.html#SECID61 ) at chapter 9 section 2 (9.2)?

It does look like it should have mention 9.13.2, and not 9.2.

Am I right you meant the same is true for most internal links in this page?

Can it be this issue is related to #3219 ( https://code.exim.org/exim/exim/issues/3219 ) ?
