G'Evening (or whatever).
I had the problem of Exim saying no to an illegal sender
after the DATA only:
|mail from:<ich@???>
|250 <ich@???> is syntactically correct
|rcpt to:<argh@???>
|250 <argh@???> verified
|data
|354 Enter message, ending with "." on a line by itself
|ohoh.
|.
|550 rejected: cannot route to sender <ich@???>
This is my relevant configuration part:
[..]
|sender_verify
|sender_verify_fixup
|sender_verify_reject
|receiver_verify
|smtp_verify
Exim 3.00 running here.
After setting sender_try_verify I get the 550 immediately.
Now, which version is better and will not the first version
cause more trouble (we know what MTAs are out there)?
Or do I get something wrong here? If the sender is clearly
broken (/nonexistent) I do not want to have the traffic
sent to me at all. I may be overseeing something...
Besides, I also had the problem with those broken MTAs
(timeouts after DATA, never had that before), but Georg's
hints (gvz@???, a tr -d '\\\\0' as a transport filter)
worked nicely. Is this 3.0-related, perhaps?
TIA,
Alexander
