More recent versions, though, don't have that setting. Unfortunately, that
means that people who've upgraded a misconfigured server now can't use the
GUI to correct the configuration. They have to hack a text file, which they
find hard.
Oh, there's a point. What's easy about disabling receipt of null sender
emails in Exim? There's work to be done there. I don't see how it could be
made much harder without making it impossible....
