I'm curious about this same subject and the way that Exim deals with it.
Is Exim accepting and then delivering back a message to whom it believes
to be the original sender or denying the message before receiving it.
There are people out there that spoof the 'sender' address in order to
have their spam forwarded to unsuspecting recipients.
Any info on the way Exim handles these items and, as the original poster
asked, is there a way to disable this.
thanks,
Chas.
