Hi,

I keep on having tons of mails in my Exim Queue, and most of them is SPAM
like this one:

************************************
Server# exim -q -v
************************************

LOG: queue_run MAIN
Start queue run: pid=22363

SMTP>> MAIL FROM:<> SIZE=4292


************************************
Notice the Mail From command = <>
************************************

My question is, how can I block <> senders and recipients with Exim, or do I
need a Spam filter?

Also, how are Spammers able to relay through my server? Since I only allow
relaying for certain IP's and domains. Or are they intelligent enough to
relay mails using the same host name (server name)?

Hope someone could be of assistance.
