Well, so I can have an email "Super Man"@???? Well, even if it's
valid I don't want messages like this around my exim...

Every message like this is processed 3 times per minute, adding all the
headers again (a correctio, isn't the -H file that gets bigger and
bigger, is the -D file that is just headers repeated once and again). To
each one of this headers rewritings amavis is runned and the
X-Virus-Scanned is added, but the message isn't delivered, just stays
here seated and using precious machine resources.

So, there's a way to block then?

Some examples:

"Married lonelyaolonemarriedwomen"@???
"- eventos"@???
"Indique <envio"@???
" RoadRunnerSports.3436.155168"@???

The weird thing is that my sender verify/callout is active, and I trying
to verify manually the existance of this emails I get an error, but exim
isn't blocking them with callout, I think that it has a problem with
this type of local_part.
