Onderwerp: [Exim] RFC 2821 and "headers_sender_verify"/"headers_checks_fail"
Currently I have
                    headers_sender_verify = yes
                    headers_checks_fail = yes


and a now list owner complains about refused messages with unresolvable
domain in the "From: " line of a messages sent via his mailing list.

He told me that RFC 2821 states:

When RFC 822 format [7, 32] is being used, the mail data include the
memo header items such as Date, Subject, To, Cc, From. Server SMTP
systems SHOULD NOT reject messages based on perceived defects in the
RFC 822 or MIME [12] message header or message body. In particular,
they MUST NOT reject messages in which the numbers of Resent-fields
do not match or Resent-to appears without Resent-from and/or Resent-
date.

Is my setting "illegal" ?
