Subject: [EXIM] Curious rejected message
I have a customer who is trying to reply to their own Usenet posting but
is being rejected with the following:

We've checked and there are no extraneous characters at the end of the
address. Is it possible that exim is parsing the To: line wrong? Or am I
missing something obvious above?

We're running v1.82.

TIA,
