It's a bloody big problem because Exim doesn't detect a rejection of the
MAIL verb, It treats a rejection of the MAIL verb as a rejection of the
RCPT verb and then, presumably because this change was unitentional,
WRONGLY REJECTS EVERY SINGLE RECIPIENT FOR THAT DOMAIN, based on
incorrect cached callout data. Are you quite clear about that, now?
