Subject: [Exim] spam blocking...

Below is the set of headers from a spam source. Currently I've
got RSS, RBL, and DUL running on one of my servers, the other
is in process of being upgraded.

It occurs to me that with exim's filter and high configurability
that I can block stuff that is wildly out to lunch with
regards to headers.

E.g. In this case the putative From: is a domain that doesn't
match *anything* in the rest of the headers. The To: is
also forged.

So, does anyone have a start at doing a reasonable consistency
check on the headers as the basis for either a warn or auto
handler?
