From the 4.30 manual, section 38.21:
For a sender callout check, Exim makes SMTP connections to the remote hosts, |
to test whether a bounce message could be delivered to the sender address. The |
following SMTP commands are sent: |
|
HELO <primary host name> |
MAIL FROM:<> |
RCPT TO:<the address to be tested> |
QUIT |
|
LHLO is used instead of HELO if the transport's "protocol" option is set to |
'lmtp'. A recipient callout check is similar, except that the MAIL command |
contains the sender address of the incoming message. |
