[Exim] Extreme weirdness

Hi.

Some mails from exim lists have been delivered to me completely trashed.
Looks like the horrendousness starts somewhere in the headers (no subject,
To or From lines). There is always very long line of "X"s at the top of
the mail as below. All of our systems are Exim too so I should think
these mails have only gone through Exim mailers...

Anyone else seen this?...


Thanks

Scot

to confuse me (not hard at the best of times...)

Is this basically a case of:-

   if message has come through one of the listed relays
       check each ip-address/name in received headers against \
       spam sender blacklist

so you really need to be able to iterate through ip addresses,
hostnames or mail addresses found in received (or other format
headers)...

This would be analogous to the "foranyaddress" in the filter -
