1) Yes, I HUPped it.
2) for the record, I have the "receiver_verify = true" in the main
configurations section. I assume that this is correct.
3) I'm not concerned about recieve from bad IP addresses, it's when the
destination email address is bad, and the senders email address is bad.

I did "exim -d9 -bt ebmaster@???", and got the output shown below. It
seems to me that yes, it knows it can't deliver the message, but when I do a
live test, the main log shows (and in my test, I get) a "returning message
to sender". Thus, I say something is still not right, and I'm looking for
pointers
