My network runs Sendmail server but I have set up an Exim server as a gateway in order to run anti-spam/anti-virus stuff before it hits the internal servers. We get an EXTREME amount of "Mail From: <>". Probably about 2000+ an hour. These are killing the anti-spam software. Here is what I would like to do. I would like to tell Exim that if it sees "Mail From: <>", to just pass it on to the next hop and not bother with scanning it.

How is your current setup?
Do you filter with a router?
Or with exiscan?
In all cases you should be able to check for the sender ($sender_address
or senders = ) somehow
