Assumpte: [Exim] "#" on the end of email address
Hello,

Earlier, a user accidentally put a "#" on the end of an email
address in the To: field, which made Exim 3.36 do the following:

2002-08-09 13:10:34 queue run: process 17081 crashed with signal
11 while delivering 17d8ZN-0004QP-00

bash-2.05a# exim -Mrm 17d8ZN-0004QP-00
Bus error

bash-2.05a# exim -bpru
Bus error

I had to manually remove the message from the spool, after which
everything was OK again.

With Exim 4.05, the # just results in the last letter of the email
address being removed, e.g.

To: rachel@???#

  rachel@???
    Unrouteable address


Cheers,

Rachel.
