Assumpte: [exim] exim exploit or configuration problem
Hi,

Recently, since late Jun, I have been seeing spam that appears to be
sent from an email alias I have. However, closer inspection of the spam
headers shows that someone connected into the smtp server (Exim ver
4.52) then sent it out using my alias.

My question is this an exploit or a configuration problem?

My other question is there a way to shut this down? Or can I get enough
info to bring to my hosting provider so they can fix whatever problem
maybe on their side?

Please note I do not have control over the smtp server, my hosting
provider does. Also there are no email accounts associated with the
domains. This has happened on 4 different domains that I have. Please
see a sample of the header below.

Thanks!
