Subject: [exim] Forcing exim server to close connection with client
Hi All,

    I was wondering if it is possible some how to force the SMTP server to
close the connection with a client upon certain conditions?


For example, when a host with invalid reverse DNS connects, we want to
display an error and close the session. Right now it displays the error, but
we don't know how to force Exim to close the session. (The reason we want to
do this is because even after returning an error, spambots still try a dozen
recipients before disconnecting... wasting resources and log space)

Thanks in advance!
