Subject: [Exim] exim -bs and illegal senders
I'm receiving mails via UUCP as compressed batched SMTP.

These batches are fed into 'exim -bs' (after decompressing)

Now I have the following problem with spammers: When receiving batches with
an illegal 'MAIL FROM', the whole batch is aborted. The last example for
this was a mail with a sender containing colons (looking like
'some:user:name@???') which obviously was rejected.

Is there a configuration option to accept illegal senders (didn't find any)
or is there an option which I couldn't guess appropiate for this problem?

TIA.
