Aihe: RE: [Exim] 'Unrouteable mail domain'/sporadic MX lookup failures
So, on the topic of unnecessary work... is it considered bad form to have
exim do a reverse connect on incoming mail and ensure that the sender's
address is good, then reject the message if it isn't? Or is that a bad thing
because some servers simply have sending-only addresses?
