Subject: Re: [EXIM] Exim accepting addresses it cannot then parse - PATCH

I have added an option check_dns_names (boolean, default ON). This checks
each name before passing it to the resolver, and rejects names which have
characters other than alphanumerics, dot and hyphen (NOT underscore). If
invalid characters are found a debug message is logged and a DNS_NOMATCH
is returned (since the name could not be in the DNS and this bounces
things fast).
