[I had to resend this mail to this list, because I've sent it from a
wrong address.]

Hi folks,

this is a cross post to exim and mailscanner lists, 'cause I don't know
where I should search for a solution, or where I should ask.

I just switched on my new exim4 with MS (debian sarge) and the first
mails I receive are spams, of course. I see lots of spam coming in with
envelope-to: <> to non existent users and these messages freeze, since
there is no address to bounce to. Well, this seems to be a ususal spam
strategy and that my exim seems to be configured wrong, isn't it? Why
does exim try to bounce these messages? Maybe this is related to
MailScanner? One of the message logs look like this:
