Exim manual -> Index -> bounce message ->
redirection details; suppressing -> 213
That leads you to hide_child_in_errmsg. Hmm. That does the opposite of
what you want - it hides qasdezssqq@???, which is what most people
want to hide for security reasons. After all, AAA@BBB was the address
that the sender used, so why is it secret? However, for this particular
error, there is also a problem with the error message, where the
generated address is quoted again.
Maybe you'll have to completely replace the bounce message. See section
45.1 "Customizing bounce messages". No, that doesn't stop Exim including
the error message either. Sorry, I think you'll have to hack.
Well, maybe not. If you can recognize these messages in a router, you
could arrange to deliver them via a transport filter that hides what you
want to hide.
